In 1962 Dr Alex Moulton pioneered the small-wheeled bicycle revolution. Today's small wheeled cycles owe a debt of gratitude to the original Moulton 'F' frame design which introduced the concept of full-size bicycles with small wheels and utilised front and rear suspension systems for improved comfort and performance. Dr Alex Moulton CBE RDI FEng (April 9,1920 - December 9, 2012) was a highly respected English engineer and inventor, renowned worldwide for his expertise in suspension design. 'The Moulton bicycle was born out of my resolve to challenge and improve upon the classic bicycle, with its diamond frame and large wheels, which has locked bicycle design into that form since the pioneering work in England of Starley.' The Moulton bicycle is held in high regard throughout the world.
