Lynskey Performance

Not so long ago, titanium was the "it" material. Then carbon came along and ti tended to get overlooked, which is a shame because ti can do things that carbon can't. For instance, if you desire a frame custom built to your body, with a ride quality tailored to your wishes, ti comes in at half the price of custom carbon. In fact, for less than the price of most high end carbon production frames you can have a full custom ti frame finished however you'd like to make your bike truly an expression of yourself.

What's more, titanium lasts forever, doesn't rust and can actually be lighter than carbon. Ride quality can range from super plush to bone rattlingly stiff. But, like the very best carbon, it can offer that magic combination of comfort and stiffness. It can feel like there's suspension underneath you when going over bumps but there's no energy-wasting flex at the bottom bracket. It's a paradox that very few builders have solved. But Lynskey has and that's a good reason why we offer their handbuilt frames.

Their production frames share most of the elements that make Lynskey's custom frames so spectacular. Tubing choice, geometry, and the knowledge that comes from building ti frames in-house since the 1980s combine to produce frames of a quality simply not offered anywhere else. And their finishes are so spectacular that they simply defy the camera. We invite you to come in and see for yourself just what makes a Lynskey frame so special.

And if you love to travel and want to take your bike with you, Lynskey can build your frame with S&S couplers. These allow the frame to separate into two halves to be packed in a case the size of regular checked luggage, thereby saving you hundreds of dollars per trip in airline charges. People who have ridden S&S equipped bicycles are stunned to find that the ride is utterly unaffected by the couplers, which are things of beauty in their own right.

We have a limited selection of Lynskeys available for test rides. Choose one and it will be the last frame you will ever need to buy.
