Julien Riganti / 8000watt

Julien Riganti, also known as "8000watt," is a Berlin-based designer, cyclist, and passionate music enthusiast. His creative work spans from bold, neon-infused bike designs to a deeper involvement in urban culture. From 2014 to 2017, Riganti ran loof.tv, a livestream channel where he invited DJs and producers from the Frankfurt area and beyond, creating a platform for electronic music and global creative exchange. This experience underscored his belief in the synergy between music and cycling—both sources of energy, rhythm, and inspiration that fuel his creative and athletic pursuits.

In addition to his creative work, Riganti is an advocate for mental health awareness; he has hosted rides across Germany to foster discussions around ADHD and other mental health topics within the cycling community.
