ONE BIKE, UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES 

Our mission is to put the power of choice back into the hands of the rider. To create an E-bike that fits your individual wants, needs and riding style. A bike that you will be far happier with than a bike off the shelf.

Starting with a base product that is created by the people who have dedicated their lives to a knowledge base around bikes and preserving the skills of your local bike shop; wheel builder, and suspension specialist - you end up with a custom E-bike tailored for you.

We don’t strive to be the biggest brand...

FRAMESET, READY TO RIDE OR FULL CUSTOM BUILD

Buy a frameset and build your bike from the ground up! Talk to us about your dream build and allow us to source you all the parts needed then build it in store. Choosing a budget friendly, ready to ride option is also possible.

TAILOR YOUR RIDE, MADE TO MEASURE

Building a bike to be a scalpel or a sledgehammer, we can use boutique, handmade components or donor parts you're migrating from the old rig - this build is entirely yours!

We are here to provide advice along the way to help you get the most out of your ride.
