Our latest employee frame ready for welding. One of the benefits of working at Seven: you get to work on your own Seven. Or Sevens. Work here long enough, and you may end up with a Seven fleet. Most employees do. This Sola + design is part prototype & part custom awesomeness.

@Laura98284719 Glad you're still enjoying your Seven. Iku, Mike, and Leslie were a great crew!

Seven’s 24th anniversary is today. Thanking our customers for making it possible. By the numbers: We’ve built 30,000+ custom bikes. 7 of our first 10 employees from 1997 are still with Seven. Still can’t get rid of the last 3 of our 4 founders. 0 outside investors. Always riding!

@jim_urbine That is great to see! Classic but the bike still looks in great condition.

Congratulations on your anniversary! Here’s one of your 30K!! Built in January 2002, before you changed the font on your stickers. She’s still holding up!!!

@DirkScheffers That's a great setup. It looks like you put on some long miles in all conditions. Glad you were able to complete the Festive!

@sevencycles Thank You. I'm loving the custom Seven frame you built for me right at the start of the Covid breakout last year. ♥️♥️

@twoboxdesign @robvandermark Technically, that's called a nightmare! One we live every day :)

@larivieremj Michael: Glad you're looking at a Seven. We work with House of Spin in Boulder. Email us for more details at info@sevencycles.com

@sevencycles Do you have a relationship with a bike shop here in Boulder CO? I love my Evergreen, and I’d like to have a mountain bike built to replace my Santa Cruz Blur.

@SandyPerrins Great to hear! It’ll be a reliable ride partner for many years to come.

Bonding carbon & titanium | Seven has used the same epoxy system for 23 years. And our design team has been bonding carbon to titanium for more than three decades. Tens of thousands of bonded joints. Never a single epoxy fatigue failure. Slow processes to build fast bikes.
English
@velobetty @CyclefitUK Good question. All Sevens are TIG welded. We use a customized system developed over 30+ years. Most Ti bikes are welded. Brazing titanium has lower strength and a number of contamination challenges.

@sevencycles @CyclefitUK That's really cool. So these Ti bikes are welded rather than brazed?
English
Becoming a welder at Seven requires tremendous commitment. One year of training for the most capable welders. More than one-thousand test welds will be necessary. Our newest teammate, B, is on the path to welding the best bikes ever made. It takes time and patience.

Critical H-tool check. One of about 30 of Seven’s alignment controls. This test does a lot of heavy lifting: Ensures dropout faces are parallel, wheel axle is true, derailleur hanger is perfect, zero preload stress at welds, zero added stress at hub/axle interface.
English
Multitasking: Process improvement and R&D at the same time. New dropout system testing and alignment simplification.

There's never been a better time to get into the fun and adventure of gravel and mixed-terrain adventure riding, and we've put together a slew of new bike packages to get you going quickly and easily.

Seven Cycles happily turns 23 years-old today. We are celebrating by building bikes (and drinking coffee). Thanks to everyone who's let us build them a bike. It's what we were meant to do.
