MONoPOLE No O1 is hand-welded in the heart of the French Pyrenees – right next to some of the most iconic passes of the Tour de France.
This proximity allows us to ensure that the lead time for our frame is shorter compared to Asian production, reducing overstock and minimizing waste as well as granting quality control of every step of the way.
