A Hexbridge frame shop describes its made-to-measure steel bicycles, wheel building, and frame repairs.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-23 issue.
For
Riders seeking a custom steel frame or wheel service
Worth noticing
The shop says mitre gaps over 0.2 mm are re-cut rather than filled, and supplies a printed wheel-tension chart.

Field notes

The build description distinguishes frame types by intended load, not geometry alone, and gives specific choices for tubing, spacing, brake mounts, and tyre clearance. For wheel work, the shop says it records tension and returns a chart in the box; it also invites customers back six weeks later for a free re-true. Repair lead time is listed as five working days, with Saturday work sometimes available while customers wait.
