All Bits (By Be) are handmade, with love, right here, in the sunny south-side of Manchester, UK. Head to the Bits Archive to find out more about what makes Bits (by Be) so special!

Built to work, built to last

Bits (By Be) was born out of frustration with the quality & consistency of affordable bike accessories. I focus on designing Bits that work for you & your bike. I don't like shit that breaks either; which is why your Bits will last a lifetime.

Absolutely independent 

I'm a 1-human band, I designed my logo, website, products, spreadsheets, invoices... The brand might be B3, but the whole shabang is just one single Be!

Growing-up on: punk music, skating & market-stalls, in a diverse northern-English town -it's the genuineness & grassroots/DIYorDIE nature of all that, which has led me here. I've never wanted to work for some shady corporation, built on questionable decisions... I've no backing, no corporate links, no-one else telling me what to do... just me, focusing on making you the best Bits possible! 

No big bosses, shareholders or holiday bonuses here; your support helps me pay the bills, buy more materials & make a real honest living by doing what I do best!

Whatever suits you best...

Core Range

These Bits are tried & tested. The essentials, as far as I'm concerned!

Most designs in the core-range, have already seen years of testing, use & improvements; so you know they'll last!

Most stock is only available as/when you see it -so don't sleep too long, get it whilst it's there! 

Customs, commissions, collaborations

The best thing about me making everything to order, is that things can be made to your specs! I love custom projects! Wether it's a bottlepouch that matches your bike, or a fully-custom backpack for your next big trip, get in touch to start...

From & for the fixed-gear community

Bits (By Be) is me putting my love for craft, design & production into use, primarily through the medium of fixed-gear cycling. It's where my passion is & it's why you'll see my logo on posters for fixed-gear events, all across the country! I sponsor alleycats & events, all through the year, giving away tonnes of very useful Bits (By Be)! Sometimes even complete 1off's for the event, never to be made again - as they say, you gotta be in it, to win it!

 

Below are just a few of the amazing bike collectives I've supported events with...
