To hone the design philosophy of SpeedVagen is to find the balnce between frame and rider. Look closely: every curve and line of the SpeedVagen frame is designed to look and work perfectly together. The headtube, for example, is shaped perfectly to pair with the lines of the Enve Composites fork, smoothly transitioning from frame to headset to fork crown. The tubing of the frame is robust at the front of the frame and is smaller toward the seatmast, to smooth out any roughness from the road that’s transmitted up to the saddle and the rider. The seatstays hug the wheel tapering flat and wide for a smooth ride and creating a beautiful curve-shaped silhouette from behind. Frame-to-component interfaces are mated with stainless steel reinforcement in high-wear areas—their curvatures smoothly blending between the tubes they attach. That’s what we call balance.

Now, not one detail on it’s own is going to change your life. Heck you may not even notice some of them for years! But the hundreds of little (and big) details add up to make a bicycle that is different from anything out there and give you that lively, all day comfort. “Why am I going faster than any other bike I’ve owned?!” ride feel is what SpeedVagen is known for. Handmade in Portland, Oregon USA, each SpeedVagen is the extension of the owner, Sacha White’s take on the perfect balanced bike you’ll ever need.
