After receiving a huge amount of positive feedback on the design and concept of our track bike, which was exhibited at Bespoked 2024 in Dresden, we started work on adapting its concept to a road bike.
We decided to continue using a flat top tube to refine the overall line and increase the lateral rigidity of the frame. We also reinvented the design of our fork crown, which had been very popular on our prototype, to make it adapted to full integration of the brake hose into the fork.
In addition to everything we already had designed, this frame was an opportunity to include even more modernity with the machined stainless steel dropouts that we engineered in the workshop to use a UDH dropout. The frame is also able to accommodate 700x40mm tyres, making it ideal and extremely versatile for road use, but also for the slightly rougher sections you might encounter in an ultra-distance race.
Romain, a lifelong friend who lives just a few kilometres from the workshop, got in touch with Quokka last summer to design his new touring bicycle. After establishing his requirements, he gave us carte blanche for the manufacturing and all the details. For example, the extra tube was added to strengthen this bike, which will travel throughout its life, but also to give it a unique character, as the new owner wanted.
This bike is the result of a long process of reflection aimed at creating the “ultimate” steel fixed gear bike. From the 3D-printed Inconel fork crown design to the squished top tube and paint job, this bike is blessed with many special features that make it truly one-of-a-kind!
Here’s an updated version of our Voyager already presented earlier this year for this 2024 edition of the Bespoked show in Dresden.
Now fully equipped for long trips with its wonderful Cours s’il pleut bike bags, this bike is truly ready for anything ! In addition to this equipment, a fully integrated cockpit and parts from our friends at Tune have been added especially for the occasion. With its 700x48c tires and 12 speeds, there’s no terrain that can stop it !
So, are you ready for adventure ?
As an avid track cyclist, Ruediger got in touch with us to build the steel bike of his dreams in his (large) size…!
With its sparkly trim on a candy paint job, this bike is sure to make a lot of heads turn at the velodrome.
For this 2024 edition of the MADE show (Portland, OR), HUNT wheels contacted us to offer a collaboration to promote their rim brake wheels. With a model ready to go in our catalog, and with the aim of highlighting this type of brake system which is far from being obsolete, we didn’t hesitate to accept the proposal!
This bike was equipped with a first prototype version of our future 3D-printed aluminum seat mast, our new version of the brazed stem, as well as a custom fork made from Columbus Max tubing and a 3D-printed stainless steel fork lug.
Jean-Yves contacted us in mid-2024 to talk about his future fixed gear bike. The specifications were clear, he needed a sturdy and lightweight bike that was also elegant and discreet. We therefore opted for a complete frame set including a Columbus Max steel fork, a steel/stainless steel stem and even a custom 3D-printed aluminum seat mast.
To suit his long-distance riding style, Jean-Yves chose to equip his bike with brakes and three pairs of bottle-cage mounts.
Here is a Falcon disc that is not afraid to show off! With its unique paintwork and sober yet high-performance build, this bike is sure to turn heads in the peloton!
This bike is the reflection of many hours of discussion, consideration and construction for and by Corentin. Corentin is one of the architects of the Quokka website, and to celebrate the success of this project, he decided to build his dream tracklocross bike. As well as being a web designer, Corentin is also a typographer and graphic designer. He designed this new Quokka typography and created the paint scheme of his bike. In our opinion, the result is just crazy good!
Here’s a bike that’s sure to set the fixed-gear community on fire! As its new owner has always been a big fan of painted flames, his new frame with matching stem was the perfect opportunity for him to let his imagination run wild and combine his favorite colors with a flame pattern to perfectly combine elegance and subtlety, while making sure he has a bike to call his own!
Jean-Paul got in touch with us after seeing the bike we had designed for the Concours de Machines 2023. After discussing his idea for a lightweight randonneur bike, the project was launched on the basis of our Falcon model in its caliper brakes version, with the addition of a Columbus max steel fork, a custom stem and a custom stainless steel rack. After many hours of work and soul searching, here’s the finished bike!
This project is the reflection of many hours of thought and manufacturing for and in part by Benoît. He is one of the architects of the Quokka website and to celebrate the success of this project, he too decided to build the tracklocross of his dreams. With its cherry-red paintwork and real gold leaf details, Benoît has succeeded in making his bike as unique as it is desirable!
This is the bike we’ve built for the 2023 Machine Competition, which takes place during the 20th edition of the Paris-Brest-Paris. Talking about it here would take too long, but you can find out all about it in the technical file presented to the competition’s jury by clicking here!
James is a good friend who knew Quokka when it was born and who also tested the first bikes when we started out! As a keen cyclist and someone very competitive, with this new bike he wanted to change horizons and enjoy a simple, playful and all-purpose machine. As for the paintwork, this pink panther design is sure to speak for itself!
To begin 2024 in style, we’re pleased to present our Falcon disc show bike! Weighing in at just 7.20kg (including pedals), this bike is a fine example of how to create a homogeneous blend of materials to combine lightness, performance and comfort! You’ll be able to discover this bike at the various exhibitions we’ll be attending, as well as in our workshop on your next visit!
Clémence, a long-time friend, was looking for a simple, do-it-all bicycle. This gave us the opportunity to build the first MudSlayer 650B with cantilever brakes!
With its glittery purple dress, bespoke wheels and stunning aluminum parts, Clémence is sure to be the happiest person on the planet when she takes her bike to work!
The ultimate racing steel fixed gear, here, built as an unpainted prototype. Learn more about it here.
At the crossroads between fixed gear and gravel, the MudSlayer is just as capable in the city as it is on long distance trails!
Here in its simplest expression, this bike will be your ideal travel companion if you’re looking for the perfect combination of thrills and ultimate reliability.
Come and discover this bike in our workshop when you visit us, or during the various shows we’ll be taking part in over the coming months. But be careful, you could easily fall in love with this bike…! While you’re waiting to take yours for a spin in the mud, you can find out more about this model here.
After seeing our Setonix race at this year’s RadRace last Wo/man, Lukas decided to go for the custom steel frame experience. As he himself was a finalist in the 2023 race, he had a very clear idea of what he wanted. A 30mm bb drop, integrated steel seat tube, custom steel fork, mudguard braze-ons, 32mm tyre clearance - it’s all there.
A lightweight and versatile steel fixed gear. Whether you’re up for a race or just out to grab a cup of coffee, this frame will perfectly adapt to your mood. Learn more about it here.
