Daccordi 50th Anniversary: one of the best bike ever built

Custom bike. Who needs it in 2022?
Custom bikes can seem like an extravagance nowadays. The market has accustomed us to all sorts of adjustments applicable to standard bikes: stems of various sizes and angles. Seatposts with multiple setbacks. Saddles and handlebars offer different positions. And so...
The right tire pressure for your bike
The days we pushed the tire pressure on the bike to maximum, hoping to optimise performance, are long over. Today we know that the best tire pressure depends on the size of the tire, the weight of the cyclist (and the bike) and the riding style - which can lead to...

Is water enough during bike rides or do we need something more?
A question often arises in the cycling field: Only water or even mineral supplements for cycling? We saw in the previous article how important it is to maintain the body's water balance, how much water we need and how to take it correctly. Now let's answer a prevalent...
