Video: Decrypto - a quirky look at Californian bespoke bike maker Cryptic Cycles
Here's an intriguing video from US bespoke carbon bike makers, Cryptic Cycles, winner of best new builder at the 2016 North American Handbuilt Bike Show.
Called Décryptø, the short video shows the Mission Viejo, California-based brand's founder, Kevin Fickling, working on the carbon fibre tubes that go to make the bike's frame - pretty much anything that can be done in-house is done in-house - plus the finished bike being taken out for a spin.
Décryptø from SICKBOAT Creative Studios on Vimeo.
The six and a half minute video was directed, filmed and edited by Scott Nicholls and produced by Sickboat Creative Studios.

A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
