Designed from first principles. Designed to be different. Designed to be better.
If you start with the same mindset as everyone else, your design process will take you to the same destination.
We’ve done things differently. This is innovation.
We Are Innovation
Auckland Cycle Works - the founding story: Long time mountain bike addict has a hunch that opportunities have been missed, that something in the accepted theory doesn’t add up, takes inspiration and motivation from his late great mate, pursues a dream that there might just be a better way of doing things, builds some bikes, learns how suspension really works, re-writes the theory and builds some even better bikes.
Does he just ride off into the sunset with a smile on his face? Where does it go from here?
Be part of the story.
We are all about the journey - not the destination.
Which path do you follow? We are making our own.
The KOLARP suspension design was developed from first principles. We didn’t start off thinking we had all the answers, we started with experiments that asked questions.
