At the London Cycle Show in 2011 inventor Anirudha Surabhi introduced a prototype of a radical new helmet design. The Kranium has a shell like a conventional hard shell skate style helmet, but instead of a conventional foam liner it has interlocking rows of corrugated material that look like cardboard.

Trakke is a route made by the movement of people. Our Trakke is being forged in a new direction. We want to explore a different way of manufacturing, a different way of living. We want to make products that last; products that are made by craftsmen, products that quickly evolve in response to feedback from the people who use them. That’s why we don’t ship our production overseas. We make it just down the road, in a small workshop, surrounded by people who love cycling. We don’t design bags. You do. One improvement at a time.
