Bicycle Wine Rack: How-To's

BICYCLE WINE RACK INSTALLATION

If you like biking and you like wine, you're going to love this. The Bicycle Wine Rack is the perfect way to tote your favourite bottle of wine or spirits. 

Fit

The strap is designed to be snug so that when it stretches, it will be the right size and not too loose. The first couple times you put a wine bottle in it, it will feel a little snug, and the first couple of times you connect and disconnect it from the metal post, it will feel a little snug.

Leather

Don’t be afraid to rub down the rack with olive oil once a year to keep the leather slightly moist. The material is a vegetable tanned leather that will change in colour and feel, depending on how often you use it. It will darken significantly with sunlight.

Clamp

The clamping system is meant to be snug enough to keep the leather from moving around. It’s not invincible so don’t tighten the clamp harder than you need to.


Recycled

If you purchased your rack between April 28th – mid-May 2011, then congratulations, your brass knobs are recycled! I found them in a scrap recycler here in Montreal. Thanks for supporting a new way of making things.
