With a similar vision, we decided four hands are better than two.
We found out that we shared a common path to working in a bike shop: As young boys we loved riding our bikes and drawing. We found jobs working in bike shops. After a few too many years of turning wrenches, we decided that art school was a good idea. We each graduated with degrees in Fine Art Painting, and realized we were perfectly equipped for working in a bike shop.
Signal Cycles was born out of the creative fire that burns in each of us. We love using our hands and brains to build beautiful machines that get raced on, or ridden to exotic places. Bicycles are in our blood.
We have partnered with Rapha Performance Roadwear to build a bike for their Continental project. Part of that collaboration resulted in an interview that was featured on their site. It was done in 2008, but goes over how we got here, and our vision for what we would like Signal to become. The photos from that meeting are also posted on Rapha's site.
