Charge - a bicycle company. Here at Charge we specialise in uncomplicated yet functional bicycles and frames with a distinct and contemporary styling. We design our frames using carefully selected tube sets which are specifically chosen to fit our requirements. Our main love is for Steel and Titanium tubes from renowned tubing makers Tange. They have a long pedigree in producing materials of the

highest quality and as a result Tange tubing makes up the mainstay of our range which covers everything from cutting edge titanium

mountain and road frames to simple fixed gear bikes. We intend Charge to be a breath of fresh air in a world of generic hydroformed aluminium, carbon and expensive, complicated dual suspension.

Our components are designed with the ethos that form follows function. Our multi award winning Spoon saddle is testament to this,

being one of the most comfortable and versatile saddles available. A wide range of components including bars, hubs, grips, saddles, wheels, forks and much more are all designed to lead the way in performance, aesthetics and durability.

At Charge we design our products to inspire you to get out there and ride, no matter what type of cycling youâ€™re into.

More relaxed than a Plug, the Steamer and Lazy Susan town bikes are designed for

The frame also features an integrated rack with plywood deck. Both bikes come

complete with custom made chainguards, mudguards and sprung saddles, 3 speed Sturmey Archer hub and an integrated hub brakes.

Scissor

Nozzle

The Scissor frame and fork has been born from the demand for a tough fixed gear bike for the likes of team riders Super Ted and

Tom La Marche to thrash around their respective city landscapes. The frame is constructed from butted Tange Prestige cromoly, is much lighter than the Plug and has a longer cockpit, steeper head angle, lower stand-over height and slightly higher BB.
