‘I don\u2019t care if people do not like my designs,\u2019 says Vasili Zygouris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which is a good thing, as many people do little more than complain about them, for not having brakes for example, or integrated lights in the handle bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zygouris is an engineer and industrial designer who lost his job in 2020, so as a hobby he started designing concept bicycles based on famous car designs. He now has his own brand and can be contacted here for collaborations. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zygouris grew up in Greece, where he decided as a child that he wanted to become a pro MTB rider, but his real passion turned out to be bicycle design.  \u201cIt stuck in my mind that this is what I wanted to do in the future,\u201d he said. \u201cI think the passion started from back then.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He posts the images to his Instagram, where he has 55,000 followers. So far only one of his designs has become reality, the purple CobraRace. He made 5 and sold 4, each for 29,000 euros, and kept one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of this chrome creation, he states that he took the Koeningsegg CC850 as inspiration.
‘My inspiration was the most powerful \u201cmanual\u201d production car.. the @koeningsegg<\/a> CC850.. I tried to bring the aesthetics and smooth proportions of the cc850 on a TT bike.. The minimalistic approach and the aerodynamic organic form makes this bike look like an absolute weapon.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n
