Engineered for the real world.

From a sketch to working hardware: mechanical design, composites and additive parts, engineered for manufacture. Early prototypes are printed in-house for quick fit checks and iteration; production goes to trusted specialist suppliers, chosen to suit the part. One point of contact from concept to delivered parts.

CAP.01

Mechanical Design

Concept to manufacture — CAD, design-for-manufacture, tolerancing and detailed part design across disciplines.

CAP.02

Composites

Carbon and advanced composites — from aerospace structures to racing shells and bicycle frames.

CAP.03

Aerodynamics & CFD

3D scanning, CFD modelling and real-world testing to understand and reduce drag.

CAP.04

Additive Manufacturing

In-house printing for rapid prototypes and fit checks; end-use parts sourced from specialist suppliers in the right material and process.

CAP.05

Prototyping

Fast iteration from sketch to working hardware for sports projects, startups and manufacturers.

CAP.06

Custom Mounts

Bike-specific computer and camera mounts — designed and printed in-house, to fit your setup exactly.
