Named for Andy’s brilliant 1992 Tour de France stage win, the Alpe
d’Huez raises the bar for custom bicycle frames in any material.
By using our own mix of super-strong, ultra-light oversize tubes we are
able to construct a very light steel frame particularly suited to large
and powerful riders.
The Alpe d’Huez stands out as a classic yet contemporary road frame
with a level top tube and large diameter round tubing. Each frame features
our flawless TIG welding and trademark rich paint and unique graphics.
We now offer this model in both our Race and Classic Road
geometries, ideal for long rides, short-but-hard training
sessions, or winning mountain
stages of major French races. This frame perfectly captures the unmistakably
smooth, sweet ride of steel – stiff yet supple – with the
light weight, great looks, and superb handling characteristic of all
Hampsten bikes.
