Hope Bikes - A Commitment to Excellence

Are you into your cycling? The huge expansion of interest in cycling in the UK from road racing through to BMX and mountain-biking has gone hand in hand with the fantastic success of British cyclists on the international stage. 2012 promises to be another strong year for the industry despite difficult economic conditions.


Check out this brief documentary on Hope Bikes - a British brand that has a remarkable commitment to design excellence, constant innovation, trial and error, and precision engineering.

Watching this ten minute video is a compelling and beautiful study in the concept of value added and the potential of small businesses to develop durable and successful brands despite competition from huge multi national companies.
