Designs, prototypes, commissions and general engineering to customers across the World
Highpath Engineering is run from 2 small workshops in rural Wales by a couple of multi-talented engineers who made their reputations through innovative work with cycles. We handle most aspects of mechanical engineering and design - from blacksmithing to precision CNC milling - and we take pride in the high quality of all our work. For nearly three decades, Highpath has offered a tailor-made service to clients across the World, including the USA, Japan, Australia and across Europe:
- Problem solving - 'lateral thinking' is our speciality
- Prototypes and pre-production samples
- Special components and replacement parts for obsolete products
- Complementary skills in metals, plastics, wood and electronics
- No problem is too small!
29 years of innovation...

Dave started Highpath Engineering to manufacture his much sought-after Highpath Highlight and Cleland OTT cross-country cycles, as well as his innovative SwingCam brakes - the only cycle hub brakes that ever really worked. |

Chris launched his EGGring custom chainrings. They have since been used to win Olympic gold medals and exhibited on bikes in London's Science Museum and Millenium Dome. Click here for more information on EGGring Round chainrings and EGGring Oval chainrings. |

1995 |

We collaborated to design the ground-breaking Brox quadricycle. This widely-acclaimed design has been featured on several televison programs about technical innovation. Although the Brox never reached full production, its design has inspired many other machines. |

1999 |
 |
 |
|
Dave set up Highpath Design and Development to offer consultancy and prototyping services to other designers, and to work on experimental Zero- and Low-Emission transport on his own behalf. |

Chris introduced Pulse Swing Cranks and Pedal Extenders to help disabled cyclists to ride again, and Crank Shorteners to help shorter riders to cycle comfortably. Click here for more information on Pulse Crank Shorteners, Pulse Swing Cranks and Pulse Pedal Extenders. |

2012 |
We're both winding down a bit these days. Chris still runs Highpath Engineering, supplying Pulse pedalling aids to customers across the World and providing his popular crank-shortening and crank-repair service, but he no longer makes EGGring custom chainrings. Dave is building himself a power-assisted bicycle. Click here for more information on Chris and Dave, or click here to Contact either of them. |
