About us
Off-bike goods for on-bike culture. The Handmade Cyclist is a independent brand based in Winchester, UK, founded in 2011. We create finest quality goods that celebrate the beauty, passion, stories and joy of cycling.
Our beliefs:
Stories. Breakaways and back-markers, glory and grit. We ride in the slipstream of stories present and past: from Fausto Coppi to the South Downs lanes. This is how our products, spaces, and culture are born.
Details. We care about how things are made and how they make you feel. From ceramics to clothing, texture to typography, we believe function should be beautiful and beauty should be thoughtful.
Rituals. The way you prep your gear, the spin before sunrise, the shared café stop, the solo ride to clear your head.
Culture. Cycling doesn’t stop at the ride. It’s the music in your headphones, the art on the walls, the food you share, the books on your shelf. The little things that define your personal cycling culture.
Ride. And rest. We’re fans. We’re riders. We’re happiest when tweaking, training, planning, chilling, sprinting, watching, cheering, climbing, recovering. The coffee stop, the deep breath, the quiet moment after the ride.
Care. We believe how something is made matters — to the planet, to the people who make it, and to the people who use it. From responsibly sourced materials to considered production, we choose quality over quantity. Making less and making better lasts longer.
Enjoy the ride.
