Custom handmade steel bicycle frames.
A Kinship Signature frame module consists of frame, fork, headset, stem and seat post.
The frame will be a mix of tubes determined by DCC but are based around the tapered head, top and seat tubes. It is constructed in the BiLam style to Devlin’s’ unique lug design at the head tube and fillet brazed for the remainder of the frame.
Fork supplied is the Columbus Futura SLX Disc. A Columbus MAX can be used, in which case a straight head tube will be employed. Stem is custom lugged or fillet brazed steel and seat post is carbon, both painted (or not in case of the seat post) to fit in with the paint scheme.
Included are the custom headset, removable external cable stops and electronic ports for the group set of your flavour (or you can specify only one style). Internal rear brake guide, bottle bosses on down and seat tube, a Quick-Change chain keeper, cable guide on underside of the bottom bracket and M6 stainless seat post binder bolt.
Paint up to three solid colours or one candy colour is to your desire with all masked logos. Stainless steel relief head tube logo with contrast colour infill. Complicated designs attract a premium from either Bikes by Steve or Wallis Paints.
The Heffron is in the style of the Kinship but without the extra module components and a simpler BiLam head tube design.
Columbus MAX steel fork is the fork used on the Heffron. Providing a superb ride, feed back and handling that no other fork can match.
Included are internal rear brake guide, bottle bosses on down tube/seat tube, a Quick-Change chain keeper, cable guide on underside of the bottom bracket and M6 stainless seat binder bolt. Stainless steel relief head tube logo. Single solid colour paint with masked ‘Devlin’ on downtube and logo in select places.

Build Kits
Build kits can be supplied on a case by case basis and prices tbd at time of getting the build together. Happy to work with you and will endeavour to cater for all requests.
I started out riding in school in the late 1980's. From the moment I did my first group ride and then race, I was hooked on the world of two wheels. I have ridden many thousands of km's since then,. Over all sorts of terrain and with varying goals in mind. Road, track, mtb, BMX and CX have all featured in these adventures.
Over that time I have formed a pretty strong idea on how a bike should exist and how it should handle. I love the modern classic look and design my bikes to be functional first but still have a classy aesthetic about them.
With intuitive design nous and a background in fabrication and engineering, I am fortunate to have ventured down the path of building my own frames. It is both intense and soothing at the same time and is deeply satisfying to have my clients rave about their own Devlin Custom Cycle.
My preference is to build in steel. It has that legendary lively feel that I believe rewards the rider for the effort. Giving a ride that is smooth but responsive and dances delightly when pushed hard.
You can either send an email or call me. Happy to answer an questions and provide a quote for your new forever bicycle or repair/maintenance.
