Hillbrick Bikes Across America

Hi Paul,
Two and a half years ago you made me a frame while I was working in Lennox Head, NSW. I have ridden the bike with great delight, and have had many favorable comments on it.

I recently went on a bike trip in the (state of) Colorado Rocky Mountains. We rode 525 miles and climbed 36,000 feet during a six day period. On the fourth day (June 21, the first day of summer), we went over Independence Pass, climbing 4200 feet in 19 miles to an elevation of over 12,000 feet.

The bike performed marvelously. Attached is a photo you may use, delete, or file as you wish.

Cheers
Tom

Ryan Bayley Special

I recently purchased a Ryan Bayley Special. I had breaks put on and an 18 tooth cog on the freewheel side of the hub.
I can't rave about this bike enough. I just love it. Very stiff, strong and wonderfully responsive.
Changing it slightly to a single speed roadie might not be the desired use but it is the only bike that feels like an extension of me rather than a bike to ride.

Cheers David

Very happy customer

I came to Paul with a long list of characteristics that I wanted in a bike, not least value for money. Paul listened and guided me through tubing, positioning and component choices with patience and honesty. I believe that Paul respected me, a ?C Grade punter' as much as he would have a pro.

Once on the road I am absolutely wrapped with the package that Paul and Matt have given me, every time I tackle a new challenge on the bike it does exactly what I hoped it would. Last night I raced my first club crit on it and came in a respectable fifth and I definitely noticed the way the bike behaved.

It was the first time I've ever been able to sustain an effort on the drops which affirms that it fits just right. And for the first time in four years of road cycling, my knees have stopped hurting, oh yeah and ?steal is real'!

Paul and Matt, thanks heaps.

Hillbrick Frame Improves Position

Paul
Re our meeting 3 weeks ago when you set up both my bikes up (yellow Snell and blue Colnago), I have ridden the Colnago several times and found my position far improved.

Thanks for you assistance

Greater Comfort on new Hillbrick

Hey there Paul,

Just writing to thank you very much for the bike I bought from you. I expected a considerable difference when upgrading but the quality you produced exceeded these expectations. I am now riding more and enjoying it more too due to a greater comfort on the bike (and yes I do feel a bit like a show off too!!). My times are better, recovery involves less stiffness and I simply enjoy what I've got.

Thanks for your honesty, pleasant manner and fairness in service. And thank you even more for the quality of the build. Cheers to many happy kilometres,

Anthony
