Antique bicycle and penny farthing restoration UK

With vast experience of reproducing parts for the manufacture of complete period bicycles we are also setup for full restoration work. When the information is available all missing components can be reproduced to appear as it would have left the factory while trying to maintain the patina that makes an antique bicycle attractive to own. Please view our restoration examples via the menu.

We can reproduce rims, spokes, hubs, bearings, cranks, pedals, saddles, brakes, handlebars, mudguards etc..

Full restoration including painting and coach lining, saddle re trims. We have our own nickel plating tanks and polishing machines so important details can be maintained.  We use traditional restoration techniques when needed using a forge for brazing and forging parts on antique bicycle frames. We do use some modern technology such as CNC machining to aid reproduction of more complicated components such as block chains, crank arms, hubs and sprockets etc..

Any kind of spoking arrangement is no problem with experience in tangent, direct screw, adjuster and lock nut, tensioning arm such as on the Arial ordinary.

We specialise in Ordinary bicycles also known as penny farthings and early safety bicycles.
