Wow, our experiences at the Bristol Bespoked Bike Show went above and beyond what we could have ever hoped for!

We met so many amazing members of the public who connected with our vision of sustainably-made bicycles and shared their feedback with us. Thanks to your votes BEAMZ Bikes was the runner-up in the public vote at the show! Needless to say all of us in the team are chuffed to bits with this accolade, and we’ll do our very best to try and go one better next year!

We were also quickly integrated into the very generous community of framebuilders and general cycling enthusiasts who were presenting at the show. Particular thanks to Rudie from The Imagine Project with (website)Isla Bikes and Jon and Rob from Starling Cycles.

We had a chance encounter with a journalist who gave this particularly memorable quote upon finding our stand: “When I come to these shows, I am looking for a little bit of magic, and I think I just found it”. Who knows maybe BEAMZ will be in the press sometime soon.

The talks were continiously inspiring and interesting, and next year we hope to return and perhaps do a talk of our own.

Finally, thanks to Phil, Tangwyn and team for putting on such a memorable event…I’ll get whittling some more business sticks in anticipation!
