Gareth's Trek Project One Madone




Gareth had a fitting in late Jan, and 3 weeks later his 'custom' Madone is here. We needed to have a high front end to hit the contact points, so the Madone was perfect as we could spec the H3 (highest) head tube size on the 52 frame.

We also had the ability to spec much shorter crank arms than on his current bike which will really help pedalling fluency.

The built kit is Ultegra and Bonty wheels - these are winter wheels and Gareth is also going to spec a 'summer special' wheelset in a couple of months.

Gareth chose custom paint - looks really deep and metallic in the flesh. Would pop more if we had some sunshine!1

About Me

London, United Kingdom
Born on my birthday, for a few misguided years after university I worked in the city as an Investment banker at a big US bank. Tired of all the money, glamour and success I went to Business School to investigate what was the lowest margin business I could find. Happily that business turned out to be the Cycling Trade, and given I have been obsessed with cycling since I was a kid I took this to be fate. The rest is history. Now I am poor but happy, and get to surround myself with the nicest bikes in the world. Everyday is different and collaborating with people to build their dream bikes is constantly rewarding
