Why would you bypass the local cycle market and order a bicycle from Pondicherry Because it is a thing of beauty. And touts French design, to boot, along with Indian ishtyle. Custom-made and customised, at that. Well, yes, pricey too. Oh-so-pretty, however. Accessories with serious retro attitude are available separately &ndash coloured leather saddles and grips, vintage lamps with dynamo, painted bells and steel locks. Paying through your nose for individuality has never been as easy as falling off a bicycle before (Bicycles from Rs 5,000-15,000, inclusive of delivery charges myvintagebicyclette.com)
