Lyle Staufer - Crank vol.1
New zine. New scene. Bike culture Virginia. A zine by Lyle Staufer. And with each turn of the page, viewers are transported into unique stories that unfold on two wheels. Staufer's eye for photography gives a timeless vibe to the images, a nostalgic and authentic feel that resonates with Virginia's bike culture.
"This is a skateboard style mag for the Broad Street Bullies and the wide spread wheelie culture we’ve seen spread online over the last few years. I wanted this book to be something like a Thrasher mag, something that inspires others to go out and create. For photographers and bikers alike, to collaborate."
"This book shouldn’t be sealed and kept shut, it’s meant to be thrown around your house, flipped through, and shared. These images were captured over the course of a year, partially from digital, and partially from 35mm film. Some images are taken from the saddle of my bike and some from the streets of Richmond. There is no other statement for this zine than to go outside and have fun with your friends. Fixed gear, bmx, or your father’s old track bike. Ride safe."
