#FrameBuilderFridays – No. 22 Bicycle Company

It’s been a while since I’ve had a Frame Builder Friday post so what better way then to start with some fresh titanium from over seas, upstate New York, No. 22 Bicycle company.

Stuck deciding between Aluminium or Steal? Need something light but also stiff without compromising on comfort? Titanium is probably right up your street then.

Personally, I’ve always thought a titanium bicycle as a better option for a winter bike / commuter (if money grew on trees), no rust, less weight and a longer material life span with similar comfort of a steel frame – it’s probably the most ideal option. However it would be sacrilege to put one of these stunning frames through any winter conditions.

“Our point of departure is frame material: we fell in love with the ride of titanium and named our company after it. We then took to the task of sweating details of fit and finish. Our frames are based on carefully considered geometries and tubing profiles. We use the highest grades of titanium tubing available, build our frames in the United States with our veteran craftsmen, and confidently back them with our ten year warranty. We carry this meticulous approach through to our clean-lined and contemporary finishes that showcase the beauty of raw and anodized titanium.”
