Bobbin Bicycles was founded in Spring 2007 and has since gained cult status, and press recognition, for its unique range of
vintage-style bikes and accessories.
Bobbin riders are an army of retro girls, euro city-slickers, fashion kids and mature country folk, all looking for a bike to
compliment their lifestyle. They talk about how cycling makes them look and feel: they want to sit upright, wear their sunday
best, cruise around elegantly, pick up their shopping, stop for a coffee, wink at the cutey on the crossing and feel the wind in
their hair without getting in a sweaty lather.
Bobbin founders Sian Emmison & Tom Morris are known for their super-friendly and unintimidating service, so if you’re a
novice or out of practice don’t worry! The Bobbin boutique is on a gorgeous Victorian street in Central London, 3 minutes walk
from Angel tube and theres a picturesque, traffic-free square close by to test out bikes.
Bobbin is unlike any other bikeshop: a tiny treasure trove of non-sporty bike luggage, unusual bells, unique reflective and rain
wear and the of course, the cutest rides in town. Modest budget are catered for without compromising on quality, safety and
style.
