Get one or at least go look

I have been fortunate to have purchased two bikes from Handsling.During each process they were helpful,professional and very patient!
Any queries or alterations were heard and dealt with.
I have been down to the site it was great to finally see it.What made me smile most was despite it being the main business site,where bikes are created,serviced or repaired it’s clear that it’s also a bit of a “drop in” for cyclists,Handlsing owners or not.
Handsling love their bikes and it’s clear they want us to also.
Oh and the paint options are simply insane.
Thank you as always.

Highly recommend

Brilliant customer service, quick delivery too. So pleased with my new TR2evoP track bike and so excited that I’m a lot quicker on it too!!

All round top notch

Fantastic frame in a stunning colour. The bike rides very very well feeling stiff and responsive.
The customer service cannot be faulted either.

Handsling? Of course....

The A1R0evoS is a great bike - handling, ride, weight etc. And I've moved from an S-Works Tarmac so have a good benchmark. So, with many excellent bikes from the big names all competing for your ££ why choose a Handsling?
What matters to you? Race heritage? Fast handing yet comfortable geometry? Light weight? Aero credentials? Climbing prowess? Holding speed?
Check...for all of the above.
But none of that is what makes a Handsling special. It's the whole experience - from the first call to riding away. Meet the designer? Yes. Meet the owner? Yes, Meet the technician who builds your bike? Yes. Meet the expert who sprays the incredible colours? Yes. You get the idea. It's a very personal experience and you can't help but be impressed by the enthusiasm, knowledge and desire to make the best product for you the customer. And the (ongoing) race heritage and back story to the brand reinforce and validate the decision to go Handlsing over big brands, Find out for yourself and speak to Simon - but don't think that choosing a colour will be easy!

Awesome customisable bike backed with personal customer care

I was able to build a bike to suit my budget and came out with a one of kind that rides so well.
It's hundreds if not thousands cheaper than an equivalent brand.
But best of all the staff care about making sure you are happy whether it's the day you purchase it or 2 years later.
You literally cannot be disappointed by buying a Handsling.
The ride.....book a demo

What a bike!!

What a bike! Beautiful to look at but also incredibly fast and responsive to ride. The team at Handsling (Miles,Simon,Rob) put up with all my indecision over spec which was much appreciated 😁 A truly custom experience!!

Great Bike. Great Customer Service

First of all, great customer service and experience. Enjoyed meeting the owner and being shown around whilst tweaks were being made when I went to collect.
Lots of compliments on the gold colour I chose. Paint finish is really top class.
Bike was properly assembled. I even checked all the torque settings, all spot on.
What might I do differently if I was to order another? Possibly go with the lighter frame. Possibly.

Handsling make superb bikes and their…

Handsling make superb bikes and their aftercare is just as impeccable. Got my 18mnth old AeroEvo serviced there with a couple of upgrades - you can’t resist! - the bike was returned to me and it was like new bike day all over again! Faultless service from people who care. Keep it up guys!

Beyond expectation!!!

Our experience with Handsling was beyond incredible. We ordered for our son and required a lot of help as we are not cyclists. Start to finish handsling asked us every preference possible on the bike and somehow delivered it on time to make a championship race even though we had missed the order window. The bike runs like a dream. The paint is stunning in person. We can't give anything but massive praise to Handsling. A company that truly cares.

Nice

Good packaging and delivery times. I would appreciate some instructions in the box when buying a frame set as there are many unique parts in the box.

TSTRevo Ultegra Di2

From my initial phone call, when looking to replace my outgoing TT set up, Rob, Simon and co at Handsling were fully engaged, welcoming, flexible and fully understood what I was looking for. From the invitation to test ride a TSTRevo, fettling and measuring up, then on to subsequent order and collection, I was kept fully up to date and knew that they were simply a phone call or email away. Now that I have a few events this season under my belt I feel that I can round this review nicely by strongly saying that it's the smoothest and most rapid TT bike I've ridden in my many years of competition, and as such has reflected in my times, so I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the superb Handsling experience! Chapeau Gents!
