BIG CHANGE ON VILLAIN.SHOP

I hinted last week of an exciting announcement.

But first, let me take you back to pre-2020.

I had been cycling for a few years, and I realized that I was passionate about it.

I have a tendency of pushing my passions into some sort of endeavor.

So I decided to look into starting a bike shop.

I was in the research phase of my endeavor when 2020 happened.

And we all know how that went down.

Everything sorta just stopped.

I couldn't have any progress, but I'm not one to just sit around and do nothing.

I gave up on the idea of a shop.

But I started learning how to edit and shoot video, uploaded a vlog on YouTube, and here we are.

I started Villain Cycles somewhere in there to scratch my own itch in terms of the clothing.

But now, I think it's time to go back to what I initially intended.

Villain is finally selling bike equipment.

This opportunity came about through the vlog obviously.

I had inquired with the PH distributor of Magene (SPN Cycle) about an indoor trainer and they opened up the idea of exploring a sales partnership.

As a result, I am also tasked to deal these products to bike shops here in Cebu (so if interested, please let me know).

Then I also happened to be in talks with Farsports Philippines with more or less the same arrangement.

Which means, I am able to sell their brands on my store!

A few things I'm excited about:

So ya... that's the announcement.

Please let me know if there are things you wish to see on the website.

Cheers!
