Overview
Who are Pace?
Pace Cycles is a British bicycle manufacturer founded in 1987 by Adrian Carter, now based in North Yorkshire near Dalby Forest. It became known for its RC-series frames — starting with the RC100 and RC200 — built from distinctive machined square-section aluminium tubing, along with its own suspension forks.
The brand's engineering-led approach drew partly on off-road motorcycle design, and it later sold its carbon fork technology to DT Swiss. Its current range includes the full-suspension RC295 and the RC429.
