URUSHI×BIKE

Can anyone imagine trying to paint a bicycle with lacquer?

It's stronger, more beautiful, and cooler than I had imagined.

An unprecedented combination of world-class riding and lacquer frames has created new images.

The content of this special video is about Mr. Uchino participating from planning, straddling the frame of a lacquered model created in one-off, and cruising the city of Kyoto.

■Profile

Uchino Yohei:

A top Japanese rider nicknamed Ucchie (Uchie) and loved by BMX riders around the world. Since winning the 2008 world title, they have won a total of 11 world titles. A trend maker that creates a number of original tricks, such as a trick called WoochiSpin, named after his nickname, and bike flips inspired by skateboarding techniques. While playing an active role as the world's top rider in both name and reality, in 2013, he himself presided over the world championship “FLAT ARK” and held the world championship “FLAT ARK” locally in Kobe. We are planning a big contest where over 5,000 people will attend.
