Craftsmanship & Expertise
The legacy of Roberts frames began in the 1960s with master builder Charles Roberts Senior. Over the decades, this dedicated family enterprise established a prestigious worldwide reputation for producing exceptional steel framesets, defined by peerless craftsmanship and an unwavering commitment to quality.
The brand’s excellence is further cemented by its enduring support for elite professional cyclists, most notably champions Tony Doyle and Glen Mitchell. Following the passing of Charles Roberts, the family legacy endures through his son, Geoff, who carries forward the exclusive tradition of master frame building.
Today, Roberts Cycles continues to handcraft premium, world-class framesets from their dedicated Dorset workshop, operating strictly by exclusive appointment.
