Built Not Bought: The Story Behind the First Amos Design Bike
@betsie: Happy to listen to ideas. I thought the Pinkbike ultimate geometry article was really great... would like to make some bikes based on the outcome of that!

No real plans at the minute. I am a design, prototyping and testing business.... not really geared for manufacturing. But never say never.

You will have to wait and see with the new one.
In truth there is a little bit more drag when the gearbox is new.... they do ease up with use nicely though.

Thanks for the kind words.
I have a degree and masters in Product Design and Engineering to get an understanding of the basic topics. And then just always been interested in bike design, geo and kinematics plus a fair few years experience in design of complex CNC components.

Thanks for all of the comments so far! Can't believe all the positive vibes coming in... makes it all worth doing.

Thanks for the comment. Check out Instagram later today for a few more photos of the big CNC machined parts! They certainly started out as some big lumps of alloy.

I am mid-Wales. Nearest riding spots are Hopton Castle and Eastridge.
