Amsterdam - 16 September 2021- Hailing from Leiden & London, the paths of BBB Cycling & Zero Lemon have converged at Ride Out in Amsterdam. The three brand entities are elated to announce a magnificent & granitic outcome: the Zero Lemon x BBB Cycling helmet, the first of theBBB Cycling - Limited series, composed of a limited release of 100 pieces that was released on the 16th of September, 2021.
The design is inspired by the textures of marble that reflect the complexity of life, structured by the pass of time and polished by the human hand. One of the elements that always conquered the mind of its designer and inspirational cyclist, Chris Hall of Zero Lemon.
‘Marble is a Metamorphic Rock, composed of recrystallised carbonate minerals. It’s a material I have always been fascinated by and how it takes thousands, if not millions of years to create. It’s simply beautiful and this design harks back to my Architecture days, as a product I used to try to use in modern and unique ways, often recreating marble patterns in sustainable ways. The helmet design shows some of the intricate veins and patterns you would see in the stones, helping to also keep your head protected, being encompassed in this helmet from BBB.’
Chris Hall, Zero Lemon
