Josef and his brother have taken on something we have a lot of respect for: actually trying to build their own cycling brand and develop products they’d like to see on the market. It’s not the easiest path to choose, but we like both the products and the thinking behind them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, after a little more coffee and discussion, we decided to bring Velofant to Urban Bike Wear.
