Traditionally Inspired, Handmade Steel Bicycles

Site is under construction, again. Some old, some new. Focusing on bringing my design fully realized into the world, but still doing the repairs and mods you’ve all grown to love. Still takings custom commissions for frames, forks, and more.

Pictured above is a prototype. It’s a versatile bike heavily inspired by the stalwart tourers and campers of 20th century Britain, France and Japan. Built using traditional lugs and brazing, but with modern high strength steel alloys, and features like disc brakes & big tire clearances. Relatively relaxed geometry for comfortable riding, but responsive when you put the hammer down. Can be setup classically with rack and panniers, or modern minimalist bikepacking style, or some combination of the two. Difficult to pigeon hole, easy to enjoy on road or off. Next iteration will feature more triple bosses, and internal dynamo wiring features, and 650B wheels for more rubber in the same space.

Keep your antennas tuned to this station!
