UK steel

[legrandefromage]

My 1991 Claud Butler 531 MTB was UK built and my 2006 CB Dalesman was UK built.

Didnt make either of them any good though...

I have a very nice early 90's Paul Donahoe 853 road frame,built in the UK and I think he also built frames under the name Cougar.

For Road there is also Elswick Hopper, Holdsworth, Viking and Vindec. I had a Elswick Hopper Mistral tourer for a while, it was rather nice, built in Hull I believe.

The "road" list is going to be too long. There are many hundreds, probably thousands, going back to the birth of the bicycle.

The MTB list is short enough to be interesting, covering the brief period from the rise of the MTB to the death of steel as a marketable material.

Swallow should be on the MTB list. They were chiefly tandem specialists, but made some lovely mountain bikes too:

Condor are mostly a road shop but had a sideline in custom MTBs at one time.

Omega worked mostly in titanium, but I think they had a TIG 853 MTB frame in the range.

Cleland?

Pro-Circuit used to, although they were very small numbers (mainly for the race team) and were infact built by little known Geoff Mindum of Suffolk and merely sprayed and decaled in Pro-Circuit colours.

Aye the OP was for MTB's but the road bit seemed nice. I was gonna cull the vintage stuff though.
