Who are we?
Historically Kingdom bikes was a collective of European bike junkies who in 2009, as a vehicle for our growing collective of raggers, racers, engineers and two wheeled clowns designed and developed bikes that we wanted to ride. At first we just made Kingdom frames for ourselves, then our friends asked us to make bikes for them, then our friends friends. So we decided to put these bikes into small production runs and sell them online.
As of the 1st of July 2022 Kingdom bikes moved to Darlington, UK. The change of location opens up new opportunities to work more closely and move things forward, with the brand. We will continue to design, assemble, manufacture and test our prototypes in the local woods we grew up in.
Our engineer and CAD designer is based in Tasmania and we manufacture from a small but hi-tech factory in China with 3D printed parts coming from the States.
Our direction and drive still comes from being engineers, clowns, raggers and racers and this will never change!
Our bikes and our ethos
The frames have progressed wildly over the years largely due to the small and inclusive nature of the brand. We actively encourage you to be involved in the development our frames through being creative and sharing ideas. We have a range of incredible bikes, but there is always room for tweaks and adjustments based on personal preferences. We have no problem with this and would love to have our bikes continue to progress based upon the needs and wants of the riders.
Our frames are handmade and manufactured to the highest production standards. We assemble them in house with care and attention and there is one key reason for this;
We want everyone to spend as much time on the trails as possible armed with a titanium missile and a big grin. We are not trying to shave off every gram, we are not using the smallest bearings and drilled out axles. Our frames come with spare hangers and bolted through axles. Our frames are beautiful but strong, they are elegant but robust, they achieve podiums and they get crashed.
So that's us, just a bunch of bikes nuts who want to continue ragging, racing and clowning around just like before.
