I've got a custom Lynskey that I spec'd as the ultimate gravel bike in 2015 -- but which is also an outstanding road bike. (Since then, they came out with the GR250 using almost all of my tube set and custom geometry specs.) The craftsmanship on this frame is absolutely beautiful. The attention to detail is something to behold. I presented them with geometry / clearance challenges that weren't being met in any of their stock bikes then, but their solutions were as polished and perfect as if they had been building bikes by these specs for years.


The craftsmanship and attention to detail come standard on the "standard" bikes, too. I have a good friend who rides a Helix Sport and another who rides a Sportive Disc. We are all very happy with our Lynskeys. (The Lynskey seatpost is a good option to buy with the bike. Excellent seatpost.)


My Lynskey will stay with me for life. These bikes are lifers. Mine shares the garage with a BMC TeamMachine SLR-01 and the Lynskey gets used for a little more than half of my road miles.
