About us

The I Love my Pino initiative was launched by Igor in 2025.

Igor has always been a Pino fanatic, riding his tandem with his beloved wife and 3 kids for over 20 years on French roads and trails.

In 2016, Igor decided to quit his regular job as a research scientist to create Locapino, the first ever Pino rental company. Locapino quickly became an official reseller of Hasebikes’ Pinos and in 3 years, managed to become the #1 Pino dealer in Europe. To this date, Igor has delivered over 300 Pinos to clients in France and other countries throughout the world.

Through Locapino, Igor likes to share his passion and expertise for Pino bikes and provides extensive support to his clients on how to taylor, maintain and service their bikes. This includes an extensive series of video tutorials (‘TutoPinos’). Also actively maintaining a link within the community of Pino owners, Igor organises regular get-together events for his clients, like the PinObsessions (weekend events) or the PinOxygenes (long-distance Pino riding dedicated to children with special needs / a handicap).

Continuously on the look-out for good quality equipment and products for his own use, Igor decided to share his experience through the I Love my Pino brand, delivering high-quality merchandising products to Pino lovers.
