THE FOUNDERS

"Upgrade Bikes was founded by two friends Damian Mason & Matt Ryley who met at secondary school in 1979 and were both into bikes; they loved GT and Kuwahara BMXs, tracker bikes assembled from anything they could find, Klunkers and early MTBs, Dawes Galaxies and Falcon Black Diamonds to name but a few that further fuelled their passion for a life behind bars. This passion ultimately led them to starting Upgrade Bikes in 1995."
