    What happens when you take a Quella Nero and put it through one of Britain’s famous universities? You end up with a Quella Varsity Imperial – the same fun, low maintenance and track-inspired speedster, but one which has graduated with added refinement and sophistication. 

    The new members of the Quella Varsity range feature a number of improvements over our Nero models for those who wish to combine classic single speed riding with first class componentry and a top quality frame.

    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.

    Built around an upgraded 4130 chromoly frame and fork with double butted tubing, the Varsity models are lighter, faster and stronger feature sealed headset bearings, an intricate aluminium 44T crank, and a full Quella Varsity Premium finishing kit for improved comfort and performance.

    Our stunning Varsity Imperial frame has a premium chrome finish complemented with the Quella Varsity premium finishing kit.  Like the great engineering university of London, this beauty is 'world-class'.

    Great customer service

    Recently purchased the Imperial for my city commute. The bike was awaiting arrival at their workshop before sending out and customer service kept me informed promptly. I added mudguards to the order whilst it had a minor delay and it wasn't a problem. My rear mudguard was damaged in transit to my local bike shop (who did the fix for me), upon proof of damage they have sent out a replacement. Really loving the bike so far, smooth to cycle and stylish!

    Jess was the individual I was dealing with and she was fantastic. Incredibly helpful and responsive, a credit to Quella.

    I’m an Audax rider, average 16k/yr and have several bikes. Road, Gravel & MTB.. So N+1 with Quella.
    Website good, question on colour/shade, solved by Jess. Got a few extras and all delivered quickly.
    Boxed & protected very well, opened in perfect condition and colour exceptional in sun. Practising on single speed was welcomed, only done four 50-60k rides and noticed every incline! Obviously picked a great bike by all the compliments. I’m truly impressed with quality and fair price of my first fixie.

    Stylish bike

    Overall looks and rides well but struggle with the handlebars and would prefer straight ones. The curved up handlebars are a bit annoying
