“Ines and her Fixed Gear Bikes” Interview with Bloom
伊泉 和她的死飞自行车自行车心得揭秘《BLOOM》:你是什么时候开始接触死飞自行车的?伊泉:我小时候是学体操的,13岁时开始在死飞自行车上表演。那个时候这种自行车只能用于表演和场地自行车赛,不能骑上公路。那之后我就迷上了自行车,上下学时别人都坐校车,我自己骑自行车回家,路上要骑几十分钟也不嫌累。《BLOOM》:死飞自行车的构造?伊泉:死飞自行车是非常美丽的,因为它们简化到只有一个车架、两个轮子、一个车把和座子,通常没有齿轮转换器、没有挡泥板、没有灯、没有反光板,看上去是很简单纯净的一辆车。《BLOOM》:什么时候开始在中国玩“死飞”?有跟别人一起玩吗?伊泉:大概五六年前,有一次我应邀去美国参加表演,发现表演专用的死飞自行车出了新产品,可以在公路上骑了,我立马就买了一辆带回北京。在德国时,有一个骑车俱乐部,俱乐部的人一起聚会,一起出去玩,很开心。在北京,我也想找这样的一个小圈子。有一天在街上看到一个人骑着死飞行车,我追上去一问,得知对方是英国人,从英国带来了这辆车。之后我们又找到了四五个人,他们也都是“死飞”的爱好者。《BLOOM》:为什么你要放弃高管工作,选择开死飞自行……(

伊泉的名字很小鸟依人，是根据德国名字的发音来取的，但伊泉却说自己因为爱玩死飞运动，经常要拆装零配件、补胎、加气，再加上很大力地做各种高难度动作，一点儿也没有淑女的风范。她摊开一双刚拆补轮胎而弄脏的手，很调皮。
“死飞”在中国还是一项方兴未艾的街头运动，但伊泉打13岁就开始玩，到现在都20多年了。她能玩很多动作，甚至可以边骑车边煎蛋饼或是包饺子！相比普通自行车，死飞车最关键的部位就是一枚死飞轮：当停踩脚踏板时，普通飞轮会保持车轮的转动，而死飞轮却会立即制动车轮，这样便制造了玩各种车上动作的可能，甚至还能倒骑。此外，死飞轮自行车让很多设计师、时尚人士喜爱的原因，还在于每一辆车都会变成车主的一件作品，他们能根据个性来DIY零配件、车架款式、轮胎颜色等。伊泉在中国就有4辆个性迥异的死飞车，其中一辆还是用北京老牌飞鸽自行车改装的，实在是很拉风。
在五道营胡同里开着Natooke商店，每周跟“杂耍俱乐部”朋友聚会，周四或周日骑车100多公里，到郊外沿着山路骑车，顺带把秀丽的景色也欣赏个遍，这就是伊泉在北京的生活。而经过漫长的等待，外籍的伊泉所经营的五道营商店终于要等来营业执照了。在将来，她希望这里能成为一个供死飞爱好者交流的自由平台。人们可以过来聊天、喝啤酒、玩杂耍、看死飞运动的电影、计划一次出游，或是在这里挑选喜欢的零配件改装到自己的爱车上。当然，如果你对“死飞”这项运动充满了好奇，也可以来这里，在伊泉的示范下亲自体验一把“死飞”的感觉。

1. 你对北京有什么印象？
我非常喜欢北京。它与上海不一样，这里的人们在城市的变化里，仍然乐于享受慢悠的生活节奏和情趣。另外，北京人认为明天会比今天好，对生活充满了希望，这跟欧洲、美国人喜欢抱怨相比真是好太多了。
2. 听说你出行都是骑死飞自行车？
是的。我从来不坐计程车或是汽车，所以拥堵的交通对我一点影响都没有，只要这些机动车不要开到自行车道来就没问题。
3. 有中国小伙子追求你吗？
有。我本来计划找个中国男朋友，这样能更好融入中国文化。但是这里的小伙子很介意我的工资比他们高，也对我发达的肌肉感到不舒服。呵呵。不过，我现在跟法国男朋友在一起，我们是攀岩时认识的。
4. 在北京喜欢吃什么？
很多。我特别喜欢吃麻豆腐；东北菜跟德国菜很像，像锅巴肉、东北拉皮，我都很喜欢；另外川菜的辣子鸡、水煮肉也是我爱吃的。
5. 如果一个玩家想了解死飞运动，最好的途径是什么？
你可以在网上看到很多死飞的video，当然你要是愿意，可以来我的商店看死飞电影《Death Pedal》，或是加入我们的俱乐部，慢慢认识这项有趣的运动。

When former German national gymnast Ines Brunn considered leaving her job to run a bicycle shop, a friend could not believe it. “Who wants to see an old woman do tricks on a bicycle?” her friend asked.

On A Roll
Brunn runs her fixed-gear bike shop “Natooke” in Wudaoying hutong, adjacent to the Lama Temple, a major tourist attraction in the Chinese capital. She opened the shop in March 2009 after finding it hard to obtain parts for specialty fixed-gear bikes – which have wheels that are always in motion when the bikes are moving, as opposed to ordinary bikes that can coast – in the country. Brunn had started a fixed-gear bike club with a friend two years before she opened her shop. In 2008, five other people took part in its activities as fixed gear cycling was still considered a niche sport in China, “I thought it was really funny when a friend suggested that I start a shop,” Brunn says. “But then I thought I might have more people riding because of the shop, and I could see the bike community grow. “I could also be my own boss and schedule my own time.”
