Lifetime Frame Warranty


Titanium won’t rust, corrode, or break down. We are extremely proud of our products. This is why we guarantee our frames for life.

Engraved Head Tube Logo


We etch our classic logo directly onto the head tube, so your grandchildren will know the frame you pass down to them is a Van Nicholas.

Size Specific Frame Tubing


To ensure your bike will fit you for life, we automatically adjust the tubing sizes of the frame to the specifications of your body.

Brushed Finish Sculpted by hand


We think the best way to showcase our Titanium frames is to hand brush them to bring out the natural brightness.
