About us: 

There’s something about Forme that sets us apart from our competitors. 

As well as our fiercely competitive frame of mind we have access to a team of people that have competed at National and 

World Level across most genres of the sport. As real cyclists, it is our understanding and knowledge of the sport that 

allows us to offer that little bit extra and our beliefs about the most important characteristics of a British designed bike 

allow us to separate ourselves from the crowd. 

With 100% backing from Moore Large & Co Ltd, one of the UK’s largest distributors of Bicycles and Cycling accessories, 

Forme Bikes were founded by Adam Biggs and are proudly designed and developed by our team in Derbyshire. 

The new Forme collection follows a very successful season of commercial expansion and technological progress. Forme 

have products to cater for all spectrums of the sport from leading Elite riders to recreational riders and commuters. 

We continue to fuse British practicality with European style to create the perfect machine you want to ride.

Test pilots and 

Youth support 

Forme bikes are proudly designed and 

developed in the heart of the Peak District, 

on the most technical trails, steepest climbs 

and fastest descents in conjunction with 

former and existing professional cyclists to 

create a product that can be understood 

by its rider. Whether the bike will be ridden 

competitively, for pleasure or simply to 

improve your commute we recognise what 

you are looking for. 

In addition to our own test team we also 

sponsor a number of the UK’s best young 

talents seeing Forme present in a number of 

MTB and Cyclo Cross World Cup and World 

Championship events. 

Take a look at the team section of the Forme 

website for further news of our progress.

Carbon Explained 

Many bicycle manufacturers throw around terms such as “high 

modulus” without understanding what it actually means. If a bicycle 

frame was actually super high modulus in terms of its GPa (Giga 

Pascal’s) rating it would ride as stiff as a board and wouldn’t be 

comfortable or practical for anything. This is often just a phrase used 

as marketing jargon by carbon suppliers and bicycle manufacturers 

alike. 

The most important aspect of a carbon frame is how the laminate 

is laid and the percentage ratio of carbon to cohesive resins. The 

direction the fibres are laid in the different areas of the frame, in 

particular the bottom bracket shell, head tube and chain stays should 

ensure the carbon has strong torsion to reduce flex whilst remaining 

soft in bending so the frame has the relevant amount of forgiveness 

during endurance rides on the road and over roots and rocks in the 

woods. When purchasing a bicycle an understanding of the carbon 

and a belief in its quality is exceptionally important as the vast 

majority of any carbon failures in the bicycle industry are as a result 

of the cohesive resins failing not the carbon itself. 

Forme bikes work with one of the worlds leading carbon bicycle 

manufacturers using Torayca 700 and 800 carbon fibre. Our frames 

are designed to offer the optimal balance of carbon to resin to create 

the most adequate bicycle available for British terrain with every bike 

in the range scoring exceptionally well on the international stiffness to 

weight index. Forme bikes are so confident in the quality of our frames 

we also offer a lifetime guarantee. (See page 76 for further details) 

06 

Paint process 

British weather conditions and road surfaces provide a harsh 

challenge for any bike. One of Forme’s strongest selling points is our 

exceptional paint quality. To ensure your bike always looks fresh and 

new every frame is coated with a super durable lacquer. Our frames 

are electro-statically charged and then colour is applied in the form of 

a fine powder. This process ensures scratch resistance and impact 

strength offering additional toughness and improved cosmetics. 

Our Partners 

Forme Bikes are working in conjunction with 

4za for our 2013 product. 

4za is a strong Belgian brand established in 

2001, initially launching with a small line of 

forks developed for one of the largest Bicycle brands in the world. 

The 4za product range has expanded through feedback from one 

of the worlds largest bicycle brands 

using test results from professional 

riders who endure the tough Belgian 

conditions on pavé and the cyclo 

cross scene. As with Forme bikes 

4za clearly believe there is no better 

platform for testing than using 

professional riders. 

Based in one of the best cycling 

cultures in the world 4za not only 

design product in house using their 

very own wind tunnel machine for 

aerodynamic development but 

they are also surrounded by some 

of the greatest legends in cycling 

who regularly help to offer advice 

in developing and amending 4za 

product. The 4za designers and 

technicians care about the technical 

detail and they have a strong feel for 

the style and aesthetics allowing Forme bikes to customize all of our 

finish kit to match the bicycles within our range. 

The access 4za have to the best testing facilities in the world along 

with their understanding of product from a technical and “cyclists” 

point of view secured our decision to work alongside them for the 

2013 season. 

Although the frame is the crucial part to any 

performance bicycle its componentry can 

either ignite it or deflate it. Forme bikes are 

only equipped with either our own One23 

Ergofit line or the strongest established 

brands we know we can trust. 

The One23 ErgoFit collection has been 

specifically design to offer the best 

compromise between ergonomic comfort 

and high performance strength.

The Peak District - Inspiration to ride 

From our office in Derbyshire we are just a short ride away from the Peak District. Both 

the Dark and White Peak areas of the Peak District offer huge diversity and we continue 

to take our inspiration from some of the best riding scenery in the world. Our passion 

for riding in the Peak District has been displayed on each of our models hence the name 

selections such as Longcliffe, one of our infamous interval climbs, or Alport taken from 

Alport heights, the first hill from the south of the Peak District over 1000ft. 

In a heavily saturated market one key to our success is an understanding of the British 

Market and we show examples of this on every single model in the range. 

Our recognition of the most important components to a bicycle in the UK also sets us 

apart from our competition.

Introducing the Forme Flash 

Take a look at this bike. It is not just the usual carbon bike. It is a sensation. It is a 

racing thoroughbred. It is adrenaline. It is in the zone. Welcome to our dream. 

The Forme Flash is hand built by one of the worlds finest carbon manufacturers to 

our highest standards. 

At just 850 grams (size 54cm) the Flash is engineered to offer the highest level of 

performance and gives every appearance of stiffness and effective power transfer.

Why Campagnolo EPS: 

Benefits of Athena EPS: 

> 11 speed: The only electronic 11 speed on the market of its category. 

> Exclusive Multiple Shifting System: By holding the shifting button it shifts up and 

down all the 11 sprockets). 

> Ergonomy and shifting actuation like the mechanical version: No risk of undesired 

shifting and good perception even when wearing gloves. 

> Multi-Dome Technology: Provides a tactile click feeling and minimizes shifting 

mistakes. This exclusive technology (with 5 aluminum dome-shaped layers 

stacked on top of one another) developed by Campy Tech Lab in collaboration 

with Campagnolo athletes strikes the perfect balance between operating force 

and tactile shift feedback. It also minimizes the possibility of unintentionally 

shifting the rear or front derailleur. 

> Athena EPS is the lightest electronic groupset in its category: With 40g in 

weight versus Shimano UDi2 across complete drive train including crank and BB. 

> Same design, project and functions of Campagnolo Super Record(SR)/Record(R) 

EPS. 

> Same overall dimensions of Super Record/Record EPS, more compact than 

Shimano UDi2. 

> Same battery life: The low power consumption engine, same as for Super 

Record EPS, grants double duration compared to competitor versions, if the use 

is intensive - by intensive use we mean: riding more than 2000Km/month. 

> High water proof standard: Extra vigorous testing particularly suitable for the 

Wet British conditions. All control components are built to operate in any 

weather conditions in compliance with the IP67 standard. 

> More advanced electronic diagnostics. 

> Assembling time reduced thanks to the dedicated tools kit: Estimated 9 

minutes instead of about 18 minutes of competitor products. (Please ensure all 

Campagnolo EPS equipped Forme bikes are sold by trained EPS mechanics with 

thorough product training advice).

Thorpe 

The Forme Thorpe range is designed to offer the 

perfect balance between high performance and 

comfort. Providing exceptional torsional rigidity without 

sacrificing vertical give to provide a winning formula for 

any serious racing cyclist or seasoned Sportive rider. 

Technology: 

Tapered head tube/steerer – Our Thorpe frames 

feature an 1-1/8” to 1-1/2” tapered head tube and 

steerer. This allows for more precise steering when 

descending as well as improved power transfer when 

jumping out of corners and launching powerful attacks. 

BB30 – The BB30 oversized bottom bracket design 

used on the Thorpe ensures minimal flex at the 

connection point between the larger-sized chain stay, 

seat tube and down tube connection which allows a 

more direct conversion of power transfer. 

Narrow Seat Stays – With the reinforcement of 

additional cohesive resins and chunky square chain 

stays we have created a frame with narrower box 

shaped seat stays which allows the Thorpe to save 

weight without sacrificing power transfer. The stays are 

combined with a wishbone design at the top of the seat 

stay to provide marginal aerodynamic and strength 

advantages but predominantly to offer a sleeker and 

improved appearance.

ATT 

26 

The Carbon ATT lives and breathes speed. With a super tidy profile conforming to UCI 

standards, integrated cabling and an adjustable seat post from 75.5 to 77 degrees. 

Many of our competitors build a frame with cheap own branded componentry you will 

want to upgrade for them to hit a price point. Forme Bikes have created the perfect 

package by sourcing the best available componentry to match our wind tunnel tested ATT 

Carbon frame so it can be rolled out of the box and straight into a race, making it the 

best value bike in its category. 

Triathlon, Duathlon or Time Trial, you will be faster than ever. 

The second model in the series, the ATT 1.0 inherits our ethos of offering the best 

complete package possible. Featuring a lightweight custom hydroformed aluminium frame 

optimized to keep wind resistance to a minimum offering top tier performance on a 

budget. Take a look at this bike in the flesh and you will be amazed that it isn’t carbon! 

Full internal cable routing and our finest welding combined with a full aero seat post, 

wheelset and Tri Bar allow you to maximize your aerodynamics and shave significant time 

off your race against the clock.

Longcliffe 

The Longcliffe series offers race performance and the perfect basis for training, 

fitness and commuting with comfort at the forefront of our minds. With slightly 

shorter top tubes and longer head tubes the Longcliffe range is ideal for any 

endurance ride. 

Aluminium is considered the most versatile of materials for a cyclist however this is 

only applicable if the appropriate geometry and material is applied, not to mention the 

best available equipment ensemble. 

We take care not to neglect the most important fundamentals of a bike. The frame 

and wheelset should always be the priority for any rider purchasing a complete bicycle 

package. This is why on our entire Forme Road range we use AL7005 grade of tubing 

to our own custom geometry all handcrafted by one of the best and well known frame 

manufacturers in the world. This is partnered by the best available wheelsets for 

the price. Even on our £899 priced Longcliffe 2.0 bike we feature a custom Mavic 

Aksium wheelset with further upgrades found on the Longcliffe 1.0! 

30 

What else makes all the difference on our Longcliffe series: 

Tubing: Our entire Longcliffe range features AL7005 tubing with the 1.0 and 

2.0 using triple butted tubes and other models using double butted tubes. 

Wheelset selection: The wheelset is one of if not the most important part of 

a bicycle performance. Sealed bearings can still be found on our Longcliffe 3 

model. The majority of our competitors do not use full sealed bearing wheelsets 

on any bicycles below £1000. 

Gear selection: Each of our bikes features a Compact Chainset and optimal 

gear ratio selections to suit the needs of the vast majority of riders without 

having to resort to a triple chainset. 

Mudguard clearance: Suitable mudguard clearance and long reach Brake 

Calipers are found on each model to ensure maximum versatility.

Calver 

Cyclo Cross is considered to be one of the toughest genres 

of the sport. When faced with steep muddy inclines, sharp 

corners or step runs the Calver CX series is designed to meet 

your demands. 

In addition to frame performance there are a number of 

additional details that cannot be neglected by any serious Cyclo 

Cross rider. We have implemented a number of unique designs 

to guarantee optimum mud clearance and the smoothest 

braking and shifting performance possible. 

Following a year of product testing and feedback from 2 Great 

Britain team riders we have injected every ounce of experience 

towards, what we believe to be, the most efficient and practical 

Cyclo Cross Race Bikes on the market. 

44 

The Campy Tech Lab engineering 

staff conducted in-depth studies on 

the behaviour of the chain on the 

chainrings during shifting in the 

most critical situations, leading to 

some very important results. The 

inner machining of the chainrings 

was created to facilitate the up 

shift and downshift of the chain, so 

that the movements are fast and 

precise in all conditions. In addition 

the Cyclo Cross specific bottom 

bracket features a double lip seal 

to prevent damage through mud 

and sand. 

CYCLO CROSS 

Tapered Steerer – Provides responsive, agile handling 

and reduces brake judder often experienced on cyclo 

cross bikes. 

Power Transfer Square Downtube – Gives maximum 

stiffness to the rear triangle for optimum power 

transfer as well as elimination of the bridge between 

the chainstays to enhance mud clearance. 

Flat top tube – The top tube is flattened at an angle 

for improved shouldering from the non-drive side of 

the bike. 

Integrated Gear Cable Guide offers full protection 

from mud, sand and grit to ensure consistent, 

smooth shifting. 

No bottle cage bosses – The Calver CX Pro is a 

pure race machine aimed 100% at performance so 

bottles are not required for a 1 hour winter sport 

and would act as a hindrance when carrying the bike. 

Replaceable dropout hanger – Inevitably with thick 

mud and sand, even with a pit stop every lap, you will 

be vulnerable to a snapped rear hanger so we have 

ensured all of our frames are replaced with standard 

shaped replaceable dropouts. 

Integrated cabling – Helps to maintain a tidy finish 

and the full integrated cabling ensures that mud and 

grit do not effect shifting performance or comfort 

when shouldering the bike. 

The Calver X Pro is our Cyclo Cross race 

rig. Featuring product tested by the best 

Cyclo Cross teams in the world (Telenet-Fidea 

and Sunweb) the 4za Cirrus tubular wheelset allows 

riders to run lower tyre pressures for improved 

grip and performance. The Calver CX Pro also runs 

Campagnolo’s Cyclo Cross specific Athena CX 11spd 

groupset not only to offer you an extra gear than 

our competitors but also to offer you longevity 

advances too.

Winscar 29R 

Working alongside Kinesis using their KSL superlight tubing we have developed an 

innovative race 29er that is suitable for national level XC races as well as a super 

light trails bike offering precise accuracy on descents and snappy acceleration on 

the climbs. 

By modifying the geometry and seat tube shape we have ensured the chain stays 

are as short as possible without sacrificing clearance and without having to resort 

to a kinked seat tube. 

Integrated cabling: 

Ensures smooth and 

accurate shifting in poor 

weather and conditions. 12mm Thru Axle.

Winster 1.0 

Built to endure all conditions our Winster 1.0 is 

built with premium level Shimano Alfine components 

engineered to last. The last thing you want at the 

end of a tiring day or during a rushed commute is a 

mechanical problem or a puncture. 

The bike is equipped with Schwalbe Marathon Plus 

Smart Guard tyres too offering reliable protection 

against everyday tyre killers. Due to its high elasticity, 

any sharp object that tries to penetrate the Smart 

Guard lining is actively pushed back out. 

In addition to the tread and carcass thickness, 

five millimetres of belt brings the total to nearly a 

centimetre of material. Shards, flints and glass that 

embed in the tread will not penetrate. Reflective 

sidewalls are included too for further commuting safety.
