What is the difference between Cingomma’s YouTattoo and Tube belts?<\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t

You\u2019re right, they are so beautiful by them, that you can\u2019t see the differences. Don\u2019t worry, we can help with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cingomma belt is the mother of all our products, created from a real bicycle tyre, which has covered many miles and been treasured by its owner.
We use racing and road tyres, original and painted, giving each piece even more of a unique twist. Tyres that are especially old have been marked with the word Vintage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YouTattoo is also made from a bicycle tyre and is the result of creativity, technology and love for our planet. It is made using a technique known as water transfer printing, which gives a long-lasting and surprisingly original colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tube belt is the latest addition to the Cingomma family. You know what the fashion world is like, always looking for something new. Well, we decided to bring out something old\u2026literally. Tube belts are made using old, used inner tubes from bicycles and are light, cool and unique.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

From the many bike repair shops located all over Italy. It is a win-win situation, for them because they save time and money due to not having to take them to the tip, for us because we acquire raw material and for the environment, which thanks us!<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

It is a method of drawing a graphic image of a water-soluble film in our case belts. This technique, invented in Japan, uses special films created in a laboratory and patented by a team of chemists. The film is floated on the surface of the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is perfect adhesion. Scratch the surface with a key or knife and you will see that it leaves no marks on the design. Don\u2019t work away it at too much though. Let\u2019s face it, if you scratch away for an hour, you might even file away the steel beads!<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

They can carry up to 10 kg. To tell the truth, they carry more than that for us, but as usual, we have to declare less. But, hey\u202610 kg is a fair weight, right?<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t
\r\n\t\t\t\t\n

Hey, they are all unique products, so don\u2019t worry, none of your friends are going to steal your thunder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment, we don\u2019t customise individual items. If you can\u2019t find exactly what you\u2019re looking for, try checking again in the next few weeks, because we are constantly updating the website and each product is special and unique, just like you!
If the desire for something special is really driving you crazy, send an email to hello@cingomma.com<\/a> and we will see what we can do.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

Yes, it\u2019s normal, because it has effectively been used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you are buying a belt, a bag, a backpack or any other Cingomma product, you are helping to save the world by saving a tire from certain death. That tire was once married to a wheel and they had some wonderful times together.
It has destroyed this love affair so that you can look cooler tomorrow when you meet that pretty blonde who has fallen for \u2026 make the most of it!<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t

My son is still at school, is the backpack suitable for him?<\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t

We use the backpack every day and load it up for trips to the office. The backpack is comfortable and perfect for a weekend break or in the urban jungle. That said, our backpack has not been certified to meet specific ergonomic standards, so if your son needs a backpack for school books that he can wear every day, we recommend buying a more appropriate product designed by experts in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has the rest of his life ahead of him for standing out from the crowd and being cool and trendy with our products. There\u2019s no reason why you shouldn\u2019t start today though, as you may have a bit of catching up to do.
Lui ha una vita davanti per distinguersi, essere cool e alla moda con i nostri prodotti.
