Sram makes art out of accessories and promotes cycling

As part of the "World Bicycle Relief" program, the US component manufacturer is auctioning off works of art made from bicycle components. Sram has already donated over 100'000 bicycles with its bicycle support program.

Sram has sent a box containing 100 parts from Sram, Truvativ, Rock Shox and Avid to 22 artists - with the brief to create sculptures from them. The results can be seen here, and can also be purchased during an online auction from June 21: www.sram.com/partproject

The proceeds from the "Sram pArt Project" will benefit the "World Bicycle Reliefs" program. This program, launched by US component manufacturer Sram, aims to secure the livelihoods of children in African countries thanks to bicycles and to promote the independence of children in less developed regions with the help of the "power of the bicycle". Since the program was founded, over 100,000 bicycles have been provided and over 700 local mechanics trained in countries such as Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
