Bespoke
‍titanium bicycles.

Combining specialist 3d printed parts, each bike is engineered & built for you.

/ Intro
Each bike starts from carefully engineered models. Designed, engineered & built to suit your unique fit, handling preferences & structural needs.
/ 01

Fit data

All builds start with good fit data. I offer a fitting service as part of the build. If this isn't possible I can recommend one of my trusted bike fitting specialists.

This data is used as the starting point for me to develop both the geometry and structural design of your new bike. Additive manufacturing (3d printing) is integral to each build and as part of the design I will create a set of tube junctions that are uniquely optimised to the intended rider.
/ 02

3D printed

The use of this cutting edge technology creates the opportunity for more sophisticated design integration and allows me to create structures that could not be manufactured in any other way.

It offers the rider a unique product that can be refined and made lighter than a conventional frame. It also offers significant advantages during the manufacturing process as each part is designed with fabrication in mind, this helps me improve the accuracy and reliability of the build.
/ 03

Elegantly understated

I am a firm believer in function led design. The bicycle is both a wonderfully simple yet highly refined vehicle. Every part of the frame is there to serve a purpose but I don't want them to shout about it.

My bikes are built to compliment their rider, they are designed to have that quality that you can't quite put your finger on but just feels as it should. Their timeless, clean appearance is neither a coincidence or calculated it is rather the honest output of a conscientious bottom up design approach.
/ 04

Timeless & clean

By default the frames have a 'raw' finish. I have always enjoyed the purity of seeing how things are made and take pride in the work that I do being completely exposed for all to see.

But it's your bike. If this isn't to your taste there are a myriad of finishing options, from paint to anodising. I work with a range of trusted partners that can get your frame looking just the way you want it.

Models

Starting out as a base model, as detailed below, with some specific features. Each base model is then adjusted to suit individual rider’s fit requirements, handling preferences and structural requirements. Cycle to Work Scheme available.

The bike is a versatile road bike that is focused on the pure joy of being out on two wheels at any opportunity.  It's a capable race bike that is not shy of fast pace, it's light and responsive but, with generous tyre clearance (up to a measured 36mm tyre on a 700c rim), is equally at home a little further from the beaten track.

With the full suite of components that have been developed to complement the frame I have unrivalled design freedom to fine tune the geometry to suit a rider's needs.

An adventure focused model named after my late mother who had an unreasonable dislike of 'out and back' routes.

Designed to suit a wide range of tyre and wheel sizes from 650*65b to 700*55c this bike will take you almost anywhere you'd like to go on a bike that is designed for your needs from the ground up.

Routing for lights, bosses for bags or racks etc can all be customised to make sure the setup is as optimised as the rest of the design.

  • Description
    Designed for sporting time trial courses and triathlons. This bike does away with aerodynamic tubing in favour of improved ride quality and rider optimised handling. It looks to find time where you would have been scrubbing the brakes.  The custom geometry allows the rider to adopt their preferred position whilst aiming to improve the overall handling of the bike. Unashamedly 'not aero’ and better for it.
