We've been bucking trends with lugged steel bicycle frames, wool cycling clothes, cotton bike luggage and leather saddles ever since 1994. While the mainstream bicycle industry introduces "revolutionary" technological advances every season, we stick to what works and have flown the flags of safety, comfort and lasting value for over twenty years now.
