Flatweb TV Presents: Ares – 15

June 13, 2014

Here’s a gem we spotted over on Flat Matters for you to enjoy! To celebrate 15 years of business, Flatweb TV caught up with York Uno and Katsu Sera to talk about how Ares became what it is today! Definitely an interesting story along with some great insight into the brand as a whole. Take a peek!

“In 2014, Ares Bikes is celebrating its 15th anniversary. To commemorate the past 15 years, York Uno redesigned the Ashura model, updating the frame to modern standards while paying attention to the unique details that made the original Ashura frame so popular. We sat down with York at Ares Headquarters in Osaka, Japan to get a few details about the original and updated Ashura frame.” – Anthony Buglio

“I arrived in Japan today and met up with my good friend and team mate Yohei Uchino.
I was really jetlag after a solid 12 hours flight but the weather was so good we went to ride downton Kobe waiting for the other to show up this week end at KOG.
I filmed some stuff and this is what we came up with!
Enjoy!” – Matthias Dandois
