Test ride our bikes
Manufactured in Cambridge, the Abington is a sleek and sporty town bike designed by ARCC. Fitted with the Gates Carbon Belt Drive, the Abington provides a smooth and responsive ride paired to a low-maintenance and lightweight frame.
Its flowing lines are crafted from custom-drawn Reynolds Technology steel tubing and hand brazed in the UK. Machined stainless steel dropouts allow for a variety of drivetrain options and combine with large 650b x 38 tyres to provide a wonderfully comfortable, yet responsive ride.
Available in a range of colours, there's a configuration to suit all riders.
We offer a 5-year frame warranty on all Abington bikes.
Available from £1300
