Thank you for visiting us!

Retro Bicycles is a partnership between Michael Austin and Mel Platt. Returning home from their London Peking Bicycle Odyssey with an acclaimed portfolio of images, we set up Spare Tyre Publications and produced the award winning postcard books.

From there we have created the Retro Bicycle collection to celebrate the history of bicycles. All our products are created from original designs from the days when cars were an unfamiliar luxury.

Hand crafted in the Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham, England, each piece is Hallmarked, a guarantee of quality. Our products are traditionally made using the lost wax method of casting and supplied in a presentation gift box.
