Welcome To Worthington Cycles

We specialize in high end custom made steel racing bicycles. Contact us to see if we can help you with the selection of a new bicycle, repairs, replacement parts, as well as the design and building of one-off hand made custom frames. We can provide hard to find parts and accessories, specialty replacement parts, and even custom designed and manufactured parts and accessories. We also specialize in bicycle photography services, both in studio or on assignment, in addition to bicycle racing photography.

Based in Santa Cruz California Worthington Cycles was founded in 1983 by Monty Worthington. Since 1983 we have built exclusive custom steel frames including; mountain bike frames, road frames, track frames, and cyclo-cross frames. We have also designed and built specialty handlebars, custom stems, cantilever brakes, custom wheels, and many other specialty parts. 2011 is our 28th year in business! We currently source high end racing components, bike kits, do frame repairs in house, and can design and build up an entire bicycle for you.

Take a look at our posts on Custom Frames, Cantilever Brakes, Custom Wheels, and Custom Steel Stems, each is summarized with photos, product information, and some history of the product.

All of our in house products are made in small custom quantities offering a limited supply, and depending on the season we may be out doing R&D Testing or racing, instead of just building parts.

Worthington Cycles also focuses some of our time on bicycle racing photography and product photography for the bicycle industry. Go to our Image Library (coming soon) to view some of our classic racing images from our many years of covering races freelance and on assignment for major publications.
