Bespoked 2019 – Show for finest handmade bikeculture

1. June 2019

The 19th century engine shed right next to Bristol Temple Meads railway station offered a lovely site for Bespoked Show. The special feature: All bicycles presented must have handbuilt frames.

Most framebuilders were present themselves, so visitors had the opportunity to discuss their dreambike with them. Many visitors were fascinated about our beautifully designed SON dynamo-powered lighting systems, which are manufactured by us in Germany down to the smallest components. As hub dynamos are used to power charging devices for phones quite frequently, show visitors were keen to learn about the new wiring parts: the SON Coaxial Connectors, SON Coaxial Adapter as well as the SON Coaxial Junction Box.
