'Achielle'
Modern retro bikes
Achielle stands for local, handmade bicycles. A classic vintage looks with a contemporary finish.
Unlike most other bicycles, each Achielle is still completely made in one workshop.
From tube to finished bicycle: Achielle makes its steel frames all by itself.
Even the painting (with powder coating) and the complete assembly is done by our own craftsmen.
Few producers do that.
The family business owes so much expertise to three generations of experience. More than 70 years of traditional cycling pleasure, since 1946.

Frame
Everything starts with the right frame. Together we will look for the frame that suits you. On our fitting bike, we build the right dimensions of the frame so that you can test your seating position perfectly. Only when the frame is correct and you have chosen the color, we can finish your bike.
Finish
Time to put your bike on point. We will continue to adapt the materials until we have your perfect dream bike, fully adapted to your cycling needs and riding style. Thanks to our wide range of saddles, handles, handles, etc. we can show, feel, and test each individual part.
Styling
Your bike is only complete with the appropriate accessories. The right lock, the best lighting, and the hippest bags. Decent protection and don't forget the GPS that will show you the way. Whatever you're looking for, we'll finish your bike to the last detail.
Nylon tooth protection
This protective layer reduces wear and strength of the belt.
Tooth profile
Its design gives you maximum contact with your gear.
Polyurethane composition
By this composition, the belt is resistant to all weather conditions, oxidation and wear.
Ribling belt
Thanks to the ridges, the belt bends more smoothly.

The sustainable and clean alternative
Mud, rain, snow: a classic necklace doesn’t like that. And get it clean afterwards! A belt on your bike is not only much easier to maintain. She also lasts two to three times longer. Much cleaner and more durable.
10 years of revolution
Bikes with belts have been around in Europe for about 10 years. It unleashed quite a revolution in the cycling world when Santos came up with it in 2009. Because belt drive cycles so much smoother and longer than a chain.
