What Does The Architect Build For Themselves?

Jimmy Wilson has probably designed more custom Seven bicycles than any other individual in the world. So, when the day comes, what does the architect build for themselves? This is not Jimmy's only Seven. He lives what he preaches. This is the bike that Jimmy races The Three Peaks Cyclo-X race on every year. The toughest cross race in the world.

For the record - Jimmy's Three-Peaks Special is now eight years old and just limbering up. The intrinsic beauty of both titanium and Seven.

What our clients say

  • "The personal service from both Phil and Julian is second to none. They have such a wealth of experience in fitting that they can almost tell at a glance if something is just a little off. It felt as though it didn't matter how long it took to get the best position possible - even for an amateur cyclist like myself. Can't recommend them enough."

    Susan

    Cyclist

  • "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

  • "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."

    RM

    New Cyclist

  • "Honestly these are great (custom orthotics). My feet feel totally balanced and stable and I‘m not searching for the pedal when I want to push it. They’ve made a massive difference.”"

    Tom Pidcock

    Olympic MTB Gold Medallist

  • "I have been able to ride every day since the fit. So far I have had no pain which feels like a miracle!"
