Another rad late-80s/early-90s ATB finding a new lease of life as a versatile utility bike. A robust frame with spot-on geometry means it’ll provide years of fun and functional service for its new owner. We’ve got another few of these builds lined up this month. Watch this space.

Genesis Croix de Fer 10 built up and ready for collection this week. An extremely capable and versatile all-rounder, this is a great value bike for exploring on and off the beaten track. There are some awesome bikes in the Genesis range, get in touch for a demo, a test ride or just to see some of these rad bikes in real life.

Another 80s ATB repurposed as a practical yet super-fun utility bike. Simply the most capable and versatile frames for building bombproof yet comfortable urban machines. And as a double bonus they look cool as. They really don’t make them like they used to.

The brief was for a functional contemporary single speed built around a classic vintage steel frame. In red. This rather lovely Hobbs of Barbican frame ticked all the boxes and made for a particularly stylish and unique build. Using quality new and pre-owned parts from Nitto, BLB, Tektro and Campagnolo means this bike has got many years of fun to come.
