A niche between small-batch artisans and mass-produced industry giants<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

SPREE SUCCESS STORY<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Mason Cycles<\/a> was founded in Brighton on the south coast of the UK by Dom Mason, who has two decades of experience in bike design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After designing multiple successful bikes that were built in Taiwan, Dom changed tack and started Mason with a view to making the ultimate four-season bike, handcrafted by artisan bicycle frame builders in small workshops in Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Mason\u2019s bikes developed and the brand grew, the company has turned into one of the most respected brands for ultra-endurance riding, with Josh Ibbett winning the legendary Transcontinental bike race across Europe aboard a Mason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ride-driven design<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Mason brand stands for progressive, forward thinking design, grounded in the needs of real riders & using the finest craftsmen, materials & componentry. The company has exclusively developed and produced components for its different frame options because Dom chooses not to compromise in an attempt to have the latest technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This attitude is also visible on Mason Cycles\u2019 website and it\u2019s ultra modern and even futurist design, beautiful photos and color consistency. It\u2019s easy to navigate and user friendly. The Product Detail Page (PDP) is very detailed and offers a comprehensive description of the product and the technology behind it. When choosing the color of your ride, an alternative gallery with different variants pops up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A very interesting feature is a product comparison tool<\/strong> that enables the user to compare up to three different models at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mason Cycles and Spree<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Dom Mason wanted to create the most beautiful, engineered frame and bike components with his new venture.  For the brand\u2019s online presence he needed an immersive site that showcases beautiful photography and the attention to detail that comes out in each product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Built using Spree Commerce the site tracks stock and bike builds \u2013 letting Mason Cycles concentrate on new products rather than administration \u2013 naturally the site is also fully responsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
