Ben’s Field Cycles Commuter

Ben's Field Cycles Commuter

The 101st Tour de France rolls towards its regular rendezvous with the Champs-Élysées tomorrow, which feels like a very short three weeks since I was cheering the sprinters along the Harrogate high street. Yorkshire was a colourful county that weekend and local builders Field Cycles are intent on keeping it that way. This single speed commuter is one of their most recent frames.

Ben is the owner of this new Field, who’ll use it to battle with London traffic on his commute, and again for winter training. It should prove to be a reliable steed, with a nonsense-free drivetrain, colour-matched fenders and disc brakes. Field’s in-house design and paint shop applied their magic to the custom stem, Whisky Parts Co handlebars and fork, and the Ritchey seatpost topper.
