Enigma Bikes

The English company from Sussex, southern England, produces handmade frames of the highest quality in their facilities.

From titanium to steel and stainless steel. Enigma is passionate about craftsmanship and strives to pass this on to the next generation, with in-house training. They also have their own paint shop where they do the so-called custom paintworks.

Escape

The Enigma Escape is a titanium gravel adventure bike that can be used in rough terrain on gravel roads as well as on the road. It is beautifully finished and has a classic aesthetic with nice details such as the dropouts. The cables and brake lines are routed externally which makes maintenance much easier, the mechanic will be grateful. The frame is complete with mudguard and rack mounts and there are two different forks to choose from, a Gravel or Adventure fork, which also has eyelets and an internal light cable guide. The latest generation of the Enigma Escape now has a tyre clearance of up to 700×50, extending its use for off-road adventures.

Echelon

The Enigma Echelon has the finest titanium alloy 3AL 2.5V frame, made in East Sussex at Enigma’s premises. The finish is an absolute dream as you can see from the welds. The Echelon is predestined for long-distance riders. The geometry is a little more moderate than on the big brother Excel, a longer head tube and longer chainstays provide increased comfort. The Echelon is available in a variety of configurations, rim brakes are also still available for people who like a very classic road bike, the choice is yours.

Excel

The Enigma Excel is the flagship of the Enigma road bikes. The frame is made of grade 5 titanium with alloy 6AL 4V. What does this designation actually mean? This alloy consists of 6% aluminium and 4% vanadium, which gives the frame more stiffness and also better corrosion protection. The finish leaves nothing to be desired. The Excel is made to order in East Sussex, South of England, so all your wishes can be catered for, be it mechanical gears or electronic, disc brakes or rim brakes, internal cable routing, with colour or different titanium finishes, whatever your heart desires.
