“Just to let you know the bike’s been for its inaugural 200km audax last
weekend. It’s been riding like a dream, even after miles of muddy farm
tracks and bog roads! It got a lot of compliments from the other riders
too. Here’s a pic outside Bective Abbey in Co Meath. (I gave the bike a
good clean the next day.)

Thanks again for this amazing machine, it’s really like magic!

Dave”

Our Philosophy

CRAFTED FOR YOU

Because we’ve been in the business of making bespoke steel frames since the 1930’s, your frame will be built with over 80 years of passed down knowledge and experience.

TAILORED TO YOU

Just like a tailored suit, your bike will be tailored to fit you exactly.  More skillful construction techniques will be used as well as the highest quality materials. Because our goal is to make perfect bicycle rather than one that meets a price point and fits most average people.

WHY COMPROMISE?

You are an individual, so why buy an off the peg bike which will only satisfy some of your needs and be a compromise on others?

Whether you know exactly what you are looking for or you need guidance, we can advise you on all aspects of your new bike and tailor it perfectly to suit your fit, your needs and your individuality.

Warranty

Steel Frames & Forks

All our handmade frames carry a lifetime warranty against any fault caused during manufacture.

Paintwork

Paintwork is guaranteed for 12 months against manufacturing defect.

Parts

All the parts we use as part of a complete build are guaranteed against manufacturing fault, as specified by the manufacturer.

DETAILS

It is in the details where your frame will excel, whether it’s the cosmetic details, such as the finely filed lugs or in the construction details, like the alignment of the wheels. Details are so important to us that we spend as much time as necessary getting each aspect just right.
