Reynolds 520 Steel Frame

We only use Reynolds steel for our bikes, as it produces strong and lightweight frames. For this model, we use Reynolds 520 double butted tubing, creating the sort of comfort only steel can provide.

Quality Hill-climbing Gears

9 wide range Shimano gears are built to get you up even the steepest city streets whilst being hassle-free to maintain.

Classic Details

A handmade steel frame with elegant finishing that makes for a comfortable, durable and lightweight ride.

Simple, Functional, Versatile

Every aspect of the bike has been designed with form and function in mind, from the sealed bearings to the classic polished alloy components.

Weatherproof, Daily use Design

The frame is finished with a protective powder coat, whilst also having plenty of clearance for full-length mudguards and multiple options for attaching racks. Sealed bearings are used throughout the bike to minimise maintenance.
