Bicycle Anatomy for Beginners
Posted by: carltonreid
Video duration: 344 seconds
Five minute video which lovingly zooms into bike parts, and names them. "Want to know your dropout from your downtube? And your seat collar from your seatpost? Watch this guide and you'll be talking bike in 5 minutes." The 'bespoke' soundtrack was made using bike parts (spokes, gear shifting, disc brake rotor twanging), recorded in my garage and then made into music by Greg Johnston.

One Got Fat - or why monkeying about on bikes is bad
Posted by: carltonreid
Video duration: 906 seconds
One Got Fat is a 1963 safety short by Interlude Films of the US. It's just over 14 mins long but keep going to the end. And try to watch without your jaw falling open. This is one screwed-up production, wrong on so many levels. Go to http://www.quickrele ase.tv
