The Open MIN.D. road frame

Open riders love Open and they equally love Andy and Gerard. The best cults never set to be a cult. There is never any polish or spin - they push all the fireworks into their ground-breaking bicycles. So, about a week ago, with no warning and no pre-amble Open’s long-awaited road bike called MIN.D. is launched. I say launched – I mean there is a polite ‘ahem’ from Andy and Gerard and then the information starts to trickle through. It was almost an anti-launch. It was the total opposite of what everyone does these days – overwrought, over-coordinated, social media-led neurotic, marketing bollocks. Death by inbound-data. Andy and Gerard simply coughed politely and then started an old fashioned conversation with those closest to them - their retailers and their fans (we are both). I, along with many of my clients was immediately gripped and engaged by what unfolded. I appreciated Gerard’s beguiling honesty from the outset -

"To be fair, there is not really a "need" for [MIN.D.], an UP, UPPER or WIDE does everything a road bike does. But if you are going to have separate bikes for your road and your gravel outings, you may as well make the road bike a pure road bike"

Imagine Apple or BMW launching a new product with that kind of fundamental truth and humility?

Frames will be shipping to Cyclefit around the 20th July.

What our clients say

"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.
"A great service, full of personal touches as well as the "harder" scientific analysis of my position on the bike, which was also excellent. I feel more planted on the bike now, and came away with some really useful feedback from the session."

Ed H

London Dynamo 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
"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
"Cyclefit provide a great personalised service that focuses on giving you exactly what you need. They are extremely knowledgable and friendly and no request/requirement is too difficult for them."
