Milestones for cyclists

There's a bicycle craze currently sweeping the nation — or so the media would have you believe — and in the midst of it, we're starting to see designers pay particular attention to cycling accessories. Design trio Mile has introduced a beautiful take on the bike stand with its Milestone (great self-referential name, too).

Each Milestone is custom-made to fit your bike and carved from a block of stone. This means you need to take into account a delivery time of about 1½ months. Available in black or white at ¥44,100 and ¥47,250 respectively, they can be ordered online through Mile's Love One project site.
