"Siegried & Vita epitomise the art of buying wisely"

LANDRACE Siegfried & Vita

Siegfried & Vita are rooted in Bloomsbury (named after Siegfried Sassoon and Vita Sackville-West) and exclusively available at Cyclefit Store Street.

LANDRACE is Cyclefit's own brand, dedicated to making beautifully functional bicycles in very small quantities, that exemplify
The art of buying wisely:

  • An absolute focus on quality
  • The bike is built of to a standard and not down to a price
  • The bike must be conceived to be resilient in the long-term to your daily miles
  • Test-ride, test-ride! The only way of determining if it is the bike for you - ride the bike as you intend to use it

Timeless Quality

Vita & Siegfried are handmade using Reynolds 631 custom-drawn steel in Cambridge, by a talented gentlemen called Paul at ARCC.

Steel is a wonderful material because it combines longevity, comfort and lightweight. It is also still the safest and most reliable material to build a bicycle from.

What our clients say

  • "Very very personalised service. You arrive, they expect you, greet you by first name, have checked your file from past visits and set out very clearly what the process will be, what issues they're looking to address and how and they are happy to take the time to walk you through everything in layman's terms. Almost any professional service entity could learn a lot from how Cyclefit works. "

    Peter G.

    Recreational rider

  • "A very thorough, professional and personal service. I was keen to analyse my bike position after breaking my hip. The custom footbeds and alterations to my position feel really good, just wish I’d come sooner! Many thanks"

    TD

    Endurance MTB rider

  • "Rode my standard Box Hill loop this morning with the temp shims and more thought to position. Felt more connected and compact on the bike. Fastest ride of the year, picked up close to a km/per hour despite crappy wet pot holed roads, a ton of traffic and a couple of nights out Thu/Fri."

    Matt H

    Seven Evergreen SL

  • "I have a lot of trust in you guys and I know how you work so I think we could do something good. Orthotics feeling good."

    Tom Pidcock

    World and Olympic champion, Ineos Grenadiers.

  • "I'm new to cycling so needed some support on finding a bike that would be right for me. Julian couldn't have been kinder or more supportive, he took time to find out what I wanted from my cycling and then looked closely at my physical structure to ensure that the bike is a comfortable fit for me. It really is a 5 star service and far exceeded my expectations."
