Two foundations. One way of building.

Made for your kind of everyday.

We don’t sell catalogue models. We start with a well-made platform, then adapt its geometry, cargo system and finish to the way you really move through the city.

01 / Longtail

Lumen One

Longtail

The full-volume workhorse for school runs, market hauls and cargo that should disappear into the city rather than dominate it.

02 / Compact

Lumen City

Slim, agile and surprisingly capable. A practical companion for apartment living, local errands and streets that get narrow fast.

Your brief, not a catalogue

Need something a little more particular?

Longer wheelbase, a custom box, lower step-through or a carry system built for work. We design around the cargo, not the other way around.

Your build

Better starts with your routine.

Choose a foundation, then make it fit. Every configuration is reviewed by a builder before your order is confirmed, so the price you see remains honest and itemised.

01
Tell us what you carry

Kids, work, groceries or tools — your real routine sets the design brief.

02
Choose a sensible starting point

Use the estimator below, then refine every detail with your builder.

03
Confirm the fit, not just the frame

We measure reach, standover and cargo placement before a single tube is cut.

Made, not manufactured

One pair of hands. One bike at a time.

Your Lumen starts as a drawing, a conversation and a set of measurements. From there, one builder takes ownership of your frame through welding, finishing, assembly and the final road test.

01
Custom-drawn 6061 aluminium

Light enough to lift, stiff enough to carry, and shaped around your proportions rather than a size chart.

02
Serviceable by design

Standard connectors, accessible cable routes and replacement parts chosen for long-term ownership.

03
Finished and tested by hand

Every weld is dressed, every bearing checked, and every completed bike loaded and ridden before handover.

Visit the workshop
Quietly capable

Every detail has a reason.

No novelty parts. No disposable design. Just considered components, weatherproof details and a fit that stays comfortable on the long way home.

Cargo that stays composed

Low-loading rails and adaptable mounting points keep weight low and predictable, even on a wet cobbled street.

Geometry made personal

Stem, saddle and bar position are set to your reach, comfort and the size of the people riding with you.

Quiet, clean drivetrains

Full chain guards, sealed bearings and low-maintenance belt options keep your weekly miles feeling effortless.

Visible at every hour

Integrated front and rear lights, reflectors and a clear bell make your intentions unmistakable in city traffic.

Kept working

Wear parts are standard sizes, major assemblies are accessible, and our workshop keeps a record of your build.

A fit guarantee

If the fit is not right in the first 90 days, we adjust it at no charge. Your body gets a say, too.

From conversation to first ride

A simple process. Carefully made.

You will always know what is happening, what comes next and what it costs. A single builder remains responsible for your bike from first sketch to final adjustment.

01

Your week

Tell us your routes, cargo, passengers and the compromises you no longer want to make.

02

Your drawing

We draw the geometry and carry system, then agree every component and final price with you.

03

Our workshop

Your frame is cut, welded, finished and assembled over eight to ten patient weeks.

04

Your first ride

We adjust the bike with you, load it with your cargo and hand over a bike that feels like yours.

“I stopped planning the week around what the car could carry. The Lumen took the school run, the market and half the office with one calm ride.”

Before you ask

Useful answers, plainly put.

Still deciding? Bring your route and your questions to the workshop. There is no sales script and no obligation.

How long does a custom build take?
Most bikes take eight to ten weeks from approved design to collection. Complex cargo systems or a second battery can add two to three weeks. You receive a workshop date before the build begins, and we will never move it without speaking to you.
Can you carry children or heavy work cargo?
Yes. The Lumen One is designed for up to 180 kg on the rear cargo area and can be fitted with one or two certified child seats. For tools, deliveries or unusual loads, we design the mounting points and reinforcement around the exact work.
What is included in the price?
Every price includes the custom frame, hand finish, wheels, transmission, brakes, lights, fenders, rack or deck as specified, assembly, workshop test ride and a full handover fitting. VAT and Danish registration are included. Accessories are shown separately.
How does the reservation and payment work?
A €500 reservation holds a build slot and is deducted from the final price. The balance is due when the bike is ready for handover. You receive a written specification and final price before anything is committed, and you can change non-structural details during the build.
What happens after I collect the bike?
Your build record, serial number and component list stay on file at the workshop. We offer a complimentary adjustment within 90 days, a five-year frame warranty, a two-year component warranty, and priority workshop support for the life of the bike.
What range does the electric version have?
The removable 650 Wh battery is rated for approximately 45–90 km depending on load, hills, weather and assist level. We calculate a realistic range for your usual route and size the battery accordingly.
