Open MIND California

Open Cycles from Switzerland are inveterate rule-breaking mavericks. And the California proves it beyond any doubt.

To most people this would represent a non-descript carbon bike. But those who know. Know.

Open MIND California 3.0

For a company called Open, Gerard and Andy sure do like to play their cards close to their chests. We had no idea that the MIND CA project had ever got off their biscuit-fuelled mood-board. Privately and publically they have admitted it has been a crazy project that no spreadsheet obsessed big corporation would ever consider. And that is why we love Open - they are mavericks - even Andy who is the more sensible partner.

This bike is for our client Toby. He never considered an Open until he took our test-bike for a whizz. We have learnt from experience that our test-bike reliably makes hardened adults weep with joy. And so it was. we hope you enjoy Toby.

What our clients say

"A great service, full of personal touches as well as the "harder" scientific analysis of my position on the bike, which was also excellent. I feel more planted on the bike now, and came away with some really useful feedback from the session."

Ed H

London Dynamo Rider
"Very very personalised service. You arrive, they expect you, greet you by first name, have checked your file from past visits and set out very clearly what the process will be, what issues they're looking to address and how and they are happy to take the time to walk you through everything in layman's terms. Almost any professional service entity could learn a lot from how Cyclefit works. "

Peter G.
