Seven 622XX - PBP

A custom-made bike for life, conceived around an event that happens once every four years - Paris-Brest-Paris

"Ti and carbon resonate at different frequencies to isolate the rider from the long road ahead, to an almost eerie degree"

A Paris-Brest-Paris Inspired Custom Seven 622XX

If you had to draw up a short list of the perfect bike to ride 1200 km in 60-80 hours, then in all that is holy, surely Seven's magnificent custom-made 622XX would be be right up at the sharp end?

Well that was certainly in our client Phil's mind when he weighed up all the factors and criteria that surrounds the extensive training, preparation and participation in the world's oldest ultra-distance cycling event.

Phil's Thinking

The reasoning is sound:

Seven are the world's leading titanium cyclo-engineering company, led by ex-Merlin guru, Rob Vandermark
Seven are rarely the glitziest bikes in the world there is so much that Rob simply refuses to do to the dull grey material that he venerates so highly. Sometimes it drives us crazy, but ultimately our mantra is: 'In Rob we trust' - when it comes to titanium
A custom designed bike from Cyclefit ensures perfect fit for efficiency and comfort
Phil already has a rim-brake 622 - it is a well proven concept
Mixing carbon and ti together adds more to the ride than it adds in stiffness or saves in weight over an all ti bike.
Ti and carbon resonate at different frequencies to isolate the rider from the long road ahead, to an almost eerie degree

Titanium where you need strength & resilience

Carbon where you need high-frequency isolation

What our clients say

"A very thorough, professional and personal service. I was keen to analyse my bike position after breaking my hip. The custom footbeds and alterations to my position feel really good, just wish I’d come sooner! Many thanks"

TD

Endurance MTB rider
"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
"Hey Julian and Phil, I hope you are both well. I just completed a 21 hour week on my new 165mm cranks and I am in love. They feel so so great! Thank you for all your help. I’ve never felt so comfortable on my bike before. All the best, Hannah"

Hannah Barnes

National Champion / Professional Bike Rider
"I'm new to cycling so needed some support on finding a bike that would be right for me. Julian couldn't have been kinder or more supportive, he took time to find out what I wanted from my cycling and then looked closely at my physical structure to ensure that the bike is a comfortable fit for me. It really is a 5 star service and far exceeded my expectations."

RM

New Cyclist
"The personal service from both Phil and Julian is second to none. They have such a wealth of experience in fitting that they can almost tell at a glance if something is just a little off. It felt as though it didn't matter how long it took to get the best position possible - even for an amateur cyclist like myself. Can't recommend them enough."
