Upon entering Vanguard's work & retail space you're greeted by a friendly staff, an open brick interior, and raw wood finishes; the space is filled with a number of different styled bicycles lining the walls or hanging from ceiling fixtures. The shelves are filled with an array of different art, design, travel, photography books and periodicals. If you look a little harder you'll find a number of interesting products sprinkled around the store. Ranging from obscure 2B pencils to Brooks bicycle seats.
Vanguard's projects take inspiration from vintage and contemporary styled bicycles, there aren't too many places in the world where you will find a 1960's styled french commuter bike for sale. The parts are restored vintage or fabricated by hand; the bicycles are then handcrafted in Singapore. If you're looking to ride something that's more than a bicycle I'd suggest you drop by.
