Since leaving university, Steve has held a variety of positions in the cycling industry including mechanic & international product manager – all before opening Transition Cycles in 2008.

Robin is the longest serving member of the shop after Steve, having joined the team shortly after opening in 2008. His deep knowledge comes from a wealth of experience – riding since 1994 and racing since 1995 across several disciplines. His success has mainly come on both the road and on the track, with a handful of time trial victories coming in the early 2000’s. His time on the track both as a privateer and with Welwyn Wheels yielded some top three positions, but Robin was ultimately unable to top the podium on the track.
