Fabulous service from start to finish. This made the purchase of a track frame very smooth with detailed information on geometry and sizing. Will be back soon for another one!

I chose Handsling because of the customisation options available. I have short cranks which are beneficial for my bad knee and carbon wheels which cope well with the Pembrokeshire winds.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great, friendly, attentive (and happily minimal!) service 1 year in. It's reassuring to have the bike in such safe hands. And it continues to ride fast and sweet and smooth. Happy (Spring!) days.

Fantastic frame in a stunning colour. The bike rides very very well feeling stiff and responsive. The customer service cannot be faulted either.

During the cyclocross season, we got more and more happy with the CexEvo. Very light frame with a really good handling. Nice colors of really good quality.

Super support and great bike

Good help and knowledgeable communicative support and great bike. The geometry for the track frame was spot on modern and finding the right size bike was made relatively easy with the help of Handsling making a mockup and sending pictures and measurements thereof. Beyond help in finding the right frame they also provided great help making sure the bike would arrive in time for the nationals. Some troubles with shipping (to no fault of Handsling) were picked up by the support crew and dealt with. All in all, great experience.

Handsling have shown how bike buying should be

New bike - the thing that puts Handsling a step above, is the extra help when you’re sizing and how to make sure you get the right fit. The communication / advice from people who have done it all before when you’re doing setup/component choices makes a real difference too. And of course you get a great bike too. Simon, Miles and the team have been great to deal with. Add in that they have chosen to support an up and coming road team as well. Fair play.

Repaint.

Bought a bike from Handsling quite some time ago & had ridden it loads ( including Coast to Coast / Liverpool to Hull / Hull to London ) , in all weather's & notched up some miles.
Everything was okay with the bike but I had put some scuffs & scrapes into the paintwork.
So I contacted Handsling , sorted out the new paint colour , price & time to send it to them.
Sent the fully made up bike - they stripped it down, resprayed it in a beautiful flip paint & reassembled it.
They even supplied ( at a discounted price ) a new chain & a couple of other bits I asked for & fitted them in the rebuild.
Took around 6 weeks from sending it to getting it back & I'm so pleased with it - like I got a new bike.

Great communication, perfect bike

Great communication regarding what riding i want the bike for and advice about gearing. Fantastic choice of colours. It was good to choose all the components with guidance from the Hamdsling teams to get the best within budget.
Handsling kept in touch throughout the build process.
The end result is a beautiful bike that fits me perfectly and is a joy to ride.

Exemplary service from Handsling!

From beginning to end the experience of purchasing my dream bike was fantastic! Being able to choose components and create a truly bespoke machine, under the expert guidance of the Handsling team, was everything I hoped it would be. The lead time proved to be exactly as promised and the finished product is both comfortable and fast!

Myself and another member of my cycling club have both bought from them and our experiences were exactly the same. I will have no hesitation in recommending their services. Thank you once again Handsling!

Buying a Handsling Bike was a joy

Buying a Handsling Bike was a joy, from the very first phone call to make my initial enquiry. They were supportive throughout the whole process (my first bespoke bike), making recommendations, and giving me guidance on where I went wrong on my digital bike fit. Handsling Bike Team, also volunteered to fit my cassette on a wheelset that I purchased outside their vast range. I cannot recommend Handsling enough. It is nice to feel valued as a customer. Thank you the Team at Handsling for making my experience great.

Personalised Experience

From beginning to end, the process was very personal. I visited the factory, and was made to feel very welcome, culminating in a test ride of a similar build to the one I wanted. A few weeks later, I was contacted by the builder, to confirm measurements and check a couple of things. Wow - the bike rides amazing, looking forward to some better weather now!
