We are honoured to be contracted by BMC Switzerland to supply boxes for their halo bike, the Masterpiece – as BMC say “an exclusive and unparalleled example of what can be done when no expense is spared”. Each and every Masterpiece bike or frame set is supplied to its customer in a custom Buxumbox.
The delivery of a Masterpiece almost always involves a flight. The cost and limited availability of these frame sets means that it’s a priority for BMC to utilise the very best bike protection available – this is not a selection based on aesthetics or image, it’s an indisputable business decision.
Everything about the Masterpiece involves the highest levels of craftsmanship and quality, hence a collaboration with Buxumbox on this project is a natural fit. Loosely based on our Ventoux Road model, this box has a unique space envelope, fittings and colour scheme all tailored to the Masterpiece.
This video posted by Canadian bike shop and BMC dealer Cranked shows the unboxing of this precious cargo.
Of course you don’t have to buy a Masterpiece to own a box of this quality, strength and ease of use. The original Ventoux Road box is available in 160 colours directly from Buxumbox – explore your options here.
Hayley and Samson’s Waxwing Cycles have been a regular customer since their 2018 inception. We’ve just shipped them these three Tourmalet boxes to add to their rental fleet – worth knowing if you’re in the Pittsburgh PA area.
Finished in our Enhanced Powder Coat finish for extra durability – colour on these is RAL5015 Sky Blue.
We’ve updated the list of available colours for the Enhanced Powder Coat finish – 156 colours to choose from. Please click on following link to view/download PDF.
A few people have been asking when the new Stelvio box for longer MTBs is going to be available to buy. The answer is now – we just haven’t yet had time to get it on the website but that will be resolved by the end of the month.
Meanwhile here are a few images from studio and final fitting check in workshop. Thanks to Tobie Loates @tloates1 for photography and Stu Goodwin @stu_goodwin for time with his beautiful Curtis MTB (curtisbikes.co.uk)
We were delighted to be asked to build a custom tandem box for Paralympic triathlete, Anna Barbaro. Anna is competing in the Triathlon PTVI Class for Italy at the Tokyo 2020 games on August 27th (2021!).
We hadn’t yet made a box for a tandem that couldn’t be split using S&S Couplers – Anna’s bike (a Duratec Big Bang Disc) therefore required a ground-up custom design. There was also a deadline to hit – just ten days to design, engineer and build the box. The challenge here was the sheer length of the box, 182cm – significant additional bracing is required to prevent flexing and bowing – you can see this in the white metal photos below.
Very happy with the end result, especially the finish in Italian azure blue.
Please follow Anna in Tokyo at 2330CET on August 27th
