I have a passion for saving vintage bicycles from the scrapheap by giving them a new lease of life.

Normally, they're steel framed British classics with anything from a Sturmey Archer 3 speed hub to a 10 speed drivetrain; I'll have a go at just about anything! I like to keep my restorations simple and sympathetic but there's almost always a modern twist.

Check out some of my previous builds over at my blog, lifeinthecyclelane.wordpress.com and, if you'd like me to build a bike for you, send me an email from here and I'll see what I can do.
