Frightening attention to detail makes this company almost an exception in mountainbike terms. Carl Nicolai is definitely one of a kind. Featuring proven four–bar platform with an adjustable head angle and bottom bracket (in fact any angle for a small extra cost) it is a made to order wonder.
Each bike is custom made for the customer. With amazing hollow welds, individual paintwork, faced and prepared frame, it even comes with an adjustable ISCG mount. Engineered and finished like no other it’s not one of those bikes that will be taken off the market after a year.
Ruthless German efficiency.
Price: Frame £2200 (approx)
