Pedro Merendero is the person behind a specialized bicycle workshop. As a child, all he wanted to do was jump and pop wheelies: the bike was the first vehicle to bring him independence and happiness, creating a bond that still drives everything he does today.
He gave that passion a direction, following his own way of understanding cycling, between curiosity and attention to detail.
That is why the project is hard to see as a simple matter of repairs and assemblies. It is more of a container for ideas, experiments, encounters and anything that sparks his curiosity: everything that crosses his mind and, in some way, represents him.
Yet if you ask the Italian Revenue Agency, all this romance has a much simpler definition: he runs a specialized bicycle workshop.
