Over 100 of the world’s best handmade bicycle makers and bicycle goods designers will be at this April’s Bespoked show in Bristol, with many new products being unveiled for the first time.
Now in its eighth year, Bespoked is primarily a show where custom bike builders can showcase their talents. The 2018 Bespoked will see the return of established framebuilders including Feather Cycles, Saffron Frameworks, Hartley, Field, Demon Frameworks, Fifty One Bikes (below), Enigma and Condor.
Erik Noren (Peacock Groove), Robin Mather, Ted James, Calfee and Mawis will be there too.
Check out our coverage of last year’s Bespoked.
The show will also see first time appearances from Stinner Frameworks of the USA (above), Angel from Spain and Australia’s Prova Cycles (below).
Covering other aspects of the bike, big names like Chris King and Brooks will showcase their ranges, as will Quoc Pham shoes and, for the first time, paint specialist Colourburn studio.
Over 6,000 visitors attended last year’s event.
There’s a full list of exhibitors down below.
