Please tell us more about the bicycle you are currently using.

I used to ride a bicycle, but recently I decided to buy a new one, the "How I Roll," a collaboration model with T-19.

How did you fall in love with bicycles?

Since I was born in Hokkaido, a place rich in nature, I am not fond of crowds and crowded trains anyway, so when I moved to Tokyo, I naturally started riding a bicycle!

What are the special features of your current car?

I chose a 24-inch bike with more serious specifications, although I was not sure about the 26-inch bike, which is easier to ride on the street. I have many friends around me who like bicycles and BMX riders, so I would like to do a lot of customization in the future!

Do you have anything in particular in mind when you ride a bicycle?

. I had a major accident on my previous bicycle, so I always try to drive safely, don't I?

What do you enjoy most about the ride?

. it's fun to bike with friends because you can chat when you stop at a red light.

Bicycle Style 08 Kaito Sasamoto _ "FTC" Staff

Please tell us more about the bicycle you are currently using.

This is the "DURCUS ONE" frame that "FTC" and "W-BASE" collaborated on. It has been three years since I was given it, but until then, it was used by the store staff as a company vehicle for "FTC", so I have been attached to it since then.

How did you fall in love with bicycles?

I have always loved vehicles, along with skateboards, and a bicycle is a great toy that not only provides transportation, but also a plaything!

What are the special features of your current car?

. it's still a carry-on. . and the stickers of my friends and favorite brands on the frame.

Where do you often go by bicycle?

Most of the time I either commute to work or go fishing or skating.

What do you enjoy most about the ride?

Since it is a fixed gear, the greatest attraction is the feeling of oneness with the bicycle.
