Open U.P.PER. 2.0.

A quick re-cap.

  • Andy and Gerard leave BMC and Cervelo respectively and form Open Cycles
  • Their mantra was and still is: “working hard to stay small”
  • 2014 - Open launches original Open UP (Unbeaten Path)
  • 2024 - Open move all their production to Portugal
  • 2025 - U.P.PER. & 2.0. available in small numbers

"A few years ago, seeing everything that was happening in the world, we concluded that freedom needs to permeate everything we do at OPEN"

Andy & Gerard

    WD

    Recreational cyclist

  • "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."
