I have seen his workmanship at the Bespoke show in Bristol last year.

Stunning frames, design and attention to detail.
He will have a display stand at the forthcoming Bespoke show again this year.

I really like their bikes. The (non e) stainless steel Pathfinder adventure bike is my favorite of all that genre I've tried to date from any manufacturer.

I've had a go on the electric ones as well. Very nice.
Although I didn't personally get on with the model that has the fully automatic gear shifting. The bike and build were fine, it was just that the gear changing happened at a very unnaturally low cadence for me - but then I like to spin! I suspect for others, it could be a very relaxing experience. I just prefer riding a bike as opposed to being driven, if you know what I mean ...

Can you not adjust the cadence? I'm a little bit worried about the wire just under the battery, I think it would be better if there was a casing around it .

Possibly. I only had a brief test ride and I had to dash off when I returned the bike so I didn't ask.
