LEE JEANS "THE CITY IS MINE"

Sometimes late last year I was approached by the good guys from Streething which runs web-based news that covers daily dosage of urban culture and everything in between to be part of Lee Jeans latest campaign called "The City Is Mine" as featured rider for their latest cycling friendly denims.

Shot and edited by Jules from Streething, the video featured both The Killer Gerbil and the fixed gear culture in Singapore and more. Check it out!

This season, Lee Jeans has expanded their repertoire to include a clothing line geared towards cycling in the city. Dubbed 'Urban Riders', the classic cowboy jeans company moves from horses to bicycles, and with that the focus is on functionality geared towards cyclists rather than the all out ruggedness expected from a pair of denim pants back in the day. The garments feature waterproof zippers, reflective inseams, pockets for mobile phones as well as numerous other touches that move at the pace of the modern day rider.

For their 'The City is Mine' campaign, we caught up with Singaporean visual artist Luthfi Mustafah aka The Killer Gerbil to talk about cycling. While many will know KGB for signature rodent cartoon character, not all who've followed his work throughout the years will know about his interest in fixed gear cycling that started a few years back.

In this video, KGB talks about taking a break from art to work at Lifecycle, a lifestyle bicycle shop. He also talks about his progression in riding preference, as we were all noobs once, so it's nice to hear about that. Then finally, he takes us to his favourite spot to cycle in Singapore.

THE NEW SEXY

The Killer Gerbil was invited in the July edition of Singapore's fashion & entertainment magazine Nuyou alongside other local big names in the industry to create an artwork with "The New Sexy" as this month's theme, interpreting sexy in a new way minus all those nudity and shit.

While cycling helps your sexy shape up, you know fixed gear is the new sexy when the boys bike-porning over classic vintages online or bike checking on the next rider at traffic stops.
