Campaign idea: Winston crafts bespoke bike frames
Winston learned to braze bike frames as a teenager. Today he crafts bespoke cycles using traditional tools in London.
This story
As a teenager, Winston joined his brother at a South London bike maker and learned high-speed brazing on factory carousels. He later moved to Roberts Cycles, where he built mountain bikes ridden to national and international race wins. In the mid-2010s, he established his own brand, Varonha, where he continues to craft custom framesets by hand using traditional tools.
