Morgan | Pashley Cycles


The Morgan Motor Company are excited to collaborate on two concept bicycles with a fellow British company, Pashley Cycles. Founded in 1926, Pashley Cycles are the longest established British cycle manufacturer, famed the world over for their range of traditionally built and impeccably styled cycles.

With centuries of combined heritage, craftsmanship and passion for their product, Pashley and Morgan are two “like-minded” brands just waiting for the perfect opportunity to collaborate. Launching in this weekend at Morgan’s much-anticipated Thrill on the Hill, the Pashley-Morgan range will include two new bikes, both of which will be produced at Pashley’s Stratford-upon-Avon factory. The bicycles have a stylish hand-crafted frame which features a new curved top tube design. It is fillet brazed using Reynolds 631 tubing and incorporates a custom formed top tube, frame mounted race plate, distinctive S-bend seat stays and unique track ends with etched stainless faces.


The Pashley Morgan 8 is finished in light pearl grey and features subtle livery inspired by Morgan’s racing heritage. Hand stitched black leather grips are complimented by Morgan aluminum end caps (based on a dashboard control). Matching mudguard and chainguard are handcrafted in-house at Morgan’s Malvern Link factory using black ash.  The Pashley-Morgan 8 features an 8 speed Shimano Nexus internal geared hub and a Shimano Nexus dynamo front hub paired to a classic domed style headlamp, as well as a Brooks Black Cambium C15 vulcanized rubber saddle with organic cotton surface. It will retail in the U.K. at £1595 ($2,037 USD).


The Pashley-Morgan 3 is finished in British Racing Green and livery inspired by Morgan’s racing heritage. It also features hand-stitched honey leather grips and Morgan aluminum end caps, a Brooks B17 saddle with walnut laminated wood veneer short mudguards and matching chainguard. The Pashley-Morgan 3 features a Sturmey Archer 3 Speed internal geared hub and a Sturmey Archer dynamo front hub paired to a classic domed style headlamp and will retail in the U.K. at £1495 ($1,910 USD).


The Pashley-Morgan range will be available to purchase through the Morgan Motor Company directly, Morgan’s global network of Dealerships and selected Pashley Cycles outlets worldwide. The bikes will be officially launched at this weekend’s Thrill on the Hill, which will be split across two days and take place across two sites. This follows as the pair of bikes were greatly received at their trade debut at the Eurobike show, July 8-10th.

“People often refer to Pashley as “the Morgan of the bicycle world” and so I am delighted that there is now a close collaboration between our two companies, manifested in the new Pashley-Morgan range of bicycles. Pashley and Morgan share many similarities including our unrivaled heritage, design innovation, and British craftsmanship and this is evidenced in the beautiful bicycles we have produced. These bicycles will appeal to Morgan car owners and discerning cyclists alike.”

Adrian Williams, Managing Director, Pashley Cycles

“The craftsmen and women at Morgan work passionately to duly reflect the brand qualities within every product we release. When exploring new product avenues and markets, the greatest way to accomplish this, with brand integrity maintained, is to collaborate with like-minded craftspeople across industries. It made absolute sense to embark on a collaborative project with Pashley.

Our approach to developing any new product starts with a blank sheet of paper. It has been a fascinating process working alongside and being influenced by, Pashley’s designers and craftsmen whilst evolving the designs. This unified approach, I believe, is apparent in the final offerings. I am particularly fond of the swept top tube. This feature is not only a first for Pashley, its intention is to mirror the gentle sloping shoulder line of current and future Morgan cars.”
