PENDO
Pendo is the answer to the growing need of bicycle storage inside the apartment.
Bicycle storage solutions are in general made to store the bicycle in the garage during the winter.
We wanted to make a shelf which looks good with and without the bike on. Without any hooks, straps etc making it easy to hang up and lift of your bike multiple times a day.
The shelf also gives a dedicated space for your helmet, bicycle lock, gloves etc.
Pendo is sold through Bavabici
