Bikes 🚲

You shouldn't have to write a corporation to ask that they continue crediting you for award winning work you created for them.

Unfortunately I just did.

I was an equal partner in this collaboration (dennybike.com) but my name isn't even on the page today. Worked with them for years to try to bring it to life.

I was their official partner in the collaboration. I brought insight from cycling culture and also lead in design and and fabrication of the prototype.

disheartening seeing my name wiped from their site when I randomly checked in on it today.

Thank you! Yeah the responsible reaction is finishing my own portfolio site. This is good motivation!

Holy moly!
Isn’t there a way around that? After years of collaboration and effort, shouldn’t be someone else with a heart and a minimum of respect and working ethic saying something about it too? 
And is it possible for you to show this with your own docs or footage or something?
Probably my word are not changing anything at all, since you most likely have thought about this before… but shame on them man! 

I hope this doesn't undermine your dedication and passion for what you do because it's really cool.

Thank you! I was trying to develop that fender prior to Denny too, it does work to some extent!

Sorry to hear about your troubles getting credit for this. I was working at Raleigh North America at the time this came out and our team was so stoked on the design details of this bike. The rack, lighting, bar lock and minimal fenders are next level!

sorry to hear

you did a great job, regardless
