Hello! I’m Marco, a cyclist and bike traveler.
From my experiences in the saddle and my passion for that wonderful way of life that is the bicycle, I decided to “build my own bike,” giving life to the Selk’Nam Cycles project.

The two wheels have been a part of my life since I was a child, and then in 2001, the spark ignited, and a love story began with the most beautiful blue aluminum bike I had ever seen, which, no less than 20 years later, accompanied me on the most beautiful bike journey I have ever taken, through South America.

There, something clicked: the life-changing experience I lived pushed me like never before; everything I had seen and learned over those years was ready to come to fruition – or at least – to give me the opportunity to do so.

Riding the ever-growing enthusiasm within me for bike adventures, the Selk’nam Cycles project was born, which is a bike designed to traverse deserts, mountains, and plains, through sun, rain, and wind, without those elements being a technical limitation for it or its rider. A bike that encompasses all the features I have found to be important for a bike adventure.

So I spent the last three years studying, experimenting, and testing different solutions, not without setbacks and moments of discouragement, but also with immense satisfaction. In the end, I can proudly declare that I have achieved my initial goal of “building my own bike”. And now it is time to show it to the world.
