Josh sent us this picture of the bike now built and ready for use. I have attached a passage from his letter he sent into us the other day.I absolutely love it, it’s fantastic. When I first took it out I wasreally curious to see how it would fit, and I was not disappointed. Infact,…

Chris has come up with the goods again. Yet another classic. I love these . The comments in the last post says it all Mr Helms was a genius and will be missed by all in the cycling world.

This has to be the BEST Mercian advert I’ve seen up to now and I think you will agree. If you have any early adverts like this please send them in I would love to see them. Chris sent me this from his Mercian Flicker site. I will post a like to his site when…

Jeff got back earlier this week and still is over the moon with the experience.Theres plenty of stories to tell and all good. I have a feeling it will not be long before he is looking at the same scene again.

Thank you Josh. We had a similar picture when Josh ordered his frame earlier in the year outlining the frame finish he would like and now he has it he sent us this picture . We have never seen a picture like it and hope the build goes well. Thank you

Just a few of the frames (new and renovation) ready for customers to collect this coming Saturday

Well this is Jeff my work colleague for the past 30 odd years. The picture was taken one day before his trip to Everest base camp . An extreme walking holiday which I’m a bit jealous of I must admit. When he returns he will be officially retired but will be working with us for…

Not 1 but 2 pictures for you today. As you can see its pictures of a small part of our early Campagnolo spares. Mostly from the early Nuovo Record days theres even a few Delta bits in this lot somewhere. Brakes, Gears and bottom bracket bits you name it. So if you get that part…
