Product Description

We’re proud to be recognised by Cycling News as one of the "Bicycle Companies We Trust". Our classic, steel-frame bikes are designed and built to order in the UK, using carefully selected components sourced from around the world. Purpose-built for commuters, they combine timeless style with everyday practicality.

Sleek and minimalist, and with a 44/16 ratio, they are perfect for everyday urban bike riding. They are responsive, light, and fast and easy to maintain and use. Our single speed bikes can be ridden fixed gear (fixie) or as a single-speed with a freewheel sprocket as each bike is supplied with a flip-flop hub so the rider can choose what they prefer and change back at any time.

The Nero range is our original & best-selling model, super dependable, sturdy, simple & very affordable. Our Nero range is the original and best-selling Quella model dependable, sturdy, simple, and affordable. Built around a durable diamond-form frame, the high-tensile steel absorbs the bumps and lumps of city streets, offering a smooth and comfortable ride. With simple componentry, maintenance is minimal just the occasional wash and a touch of oil.

The Classic range offers riser handlebars with grips and a comfy saddle. We also know everyone has different riding positions so we have included an adjustable stem on all our Classic range so you can amend your riding position to suit your preference.

The White Deep-V’s give your bike a fresh, crisp look that instantly pops on the road. Their clean lines and bright finish add a sense of speed and sharpness before you’ve even turned a pedal. Beyond the visuals, they’re engineered for real-world riding, durable enough for the daily grind, yet agile enough to keep you light on your feet when traffic gets busy. For riders who want that perfect mix of standout style and no-nonsense performance, white delivers every time.

    Absolute Belter!

    Have had my new Quella for about a month as my regular London commuter. It's brilliant. Solid, sleek and very, very comfortable. Super easy to build out the box. I absolutely love it. Buy one!

    Amazing

    The bike is incredibly high quality for what you pay.

    I really like the philosophy this company uses, with the simple design which holds on to many aspects of the original track bikes features and keeping a good amount of the manufacturing/build process in the UK.

    A few parts were missing from my order but it was really quickly rectified by the amazing customer support team, particularly Spencer and Celeste, who also helped me correct a mistake I made on my order originally and instantly offered to compensate due to the missing parts, along with next day delivery.
