We sat down with Marco Giarrana for a deep dive into his company, FAIR Bicycle. With FAIR, Marco and his business partner Valentin are trying to rewrite the script of what product design and manufacturing means. It was interesting to hear Marco’s thoughts on sustainability, transparency, and cradle-to-cradle design - principles deeply influenced by his technical background in Zürich developing the MONoPOLE No O1 cargo bike.

With the Drop Best dropper clamp for mountain bikes and the Daily Hook cargo strap, FAIR has two products out in the wild to illustrate what their approach actually means in practice. Notably, the Daily Hook was largely inspired by the modularity and rack requirements Marco helped engineer during the development of the MONoPOLE toolbike system.

We are sure there are many more innovations to come! To find out more about FAIR and their principles, check out their website or reach out to Marco and Valentin directly. You can also explore some of the engineering roots of their cargo solutions at monopole.cc.
