Engineering Expertise
Ewhurst Bikes is owned by Tom, a professional engineer and Elected Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). His engineering background brings aerospace-level precision, rigorous attention to detail, and a methodical approach to every bike, whether it’s a routine service, bespoke build, or complex repair.
Engineering & Specialist Services
Over the years, Ewhurst Bikes™ has become one of the UK’s leading specialists in bicycle engineering, frame repair, and bespoke performance builds.
Our specialist services include:
- Titanium frame repair
- Aluminium frame repair
- Steel and stainless-steel welding
- Carbon fibre frame repair
- Bicycle frame failure analysis
- Frame and fork design
- Bespoke frame modifications

Having repaired hundreds of damaged frames, we understand not only how to repair them, but why they failed in the first place. Every repair begins with identifying the root cause to ensure the finished bike is safe, reliable, and built to last.
Titanium Frame Repair & Failure Analysis
We don’t just fix the crack—we find out why it failed.
Our specialist engineering expertise covers the full complexity of titanium frame design, failure analysis, fatigue failure, titanium alloys, welding, and structural repair. From a cracked titanium weld to a recurring fatigue failure, we investigate the underlying engineering cause and develop a repair that addresses the problem at its source.
Titanium frame repair and welding are among our core high-value engineering services, combining practical repair capability with in-depth metallurgical and structural engineering expertise.
Frame Modification and Conversions
We specialise in ISO disc brake conversions for classic bicycle frames, providing carefully engineered solutions that improve braking performance, control, and reliability while respecting the original character of the bike.
“Great experience with Tom. Really easy communication and quick replies. Clearly a skilled craftsman and did a fantastic job repairing my frame and adding disc mounts. Work was done speedily and on budget. Highly recommended.”
