A major historic UK brand initialy specialising in racing cycles.

1906 Major Ernest Humphries and Charles F. Dawes established the company in Birmingham.

Charles Dawes set up Dawes Cycles Ltd in Wharf Dale, Tyseley in 1926,

Making much of their own fittings and superb frames for a wide range of uses. Hand built with a long wheelbase and lightweight frame.

The 'Windrush' lead to the famous 'Galaxy', a great touring bike in 1971, using Reynolds 531 tubing, made thicker at either end to reduce weight..

The failure of British manufacturing very nearly resulted in the company demise but now rescued along with its reputation for quality by Tandem Group.

The young brand has a great reputation for the production of street cred electric scooters of quality and colour but at great value for money and waterproof for the UK weather..

While awaiting the UK change in the law to allow the use of these great electric personal micro transports to be used on public roads and cycle tracks, Life have also turned their hand to the production of another form of commuter travel, the folding electric bike.

Their Life Force and Flo models not only look great but are very practical and aimed at the commuter market with lightweight folding and ease of storage. No more 'ticket required' on trains.

As an introduction, we are offering the Flo folding bike in our 'Grey November' sale. Check out the video and the link below.
