During his time Cliff has made several frames for some notable cycling personalities - Sean Yates won the National Pursuit 5000m championships on a Cliff Shrubb, this being one of the first low profile machines, with a hidden headset concealed within the head-tube. Tony Doyle won World Championship Pursuit on a Shrubb, and the Australian World Sprint Champion John Nicholson has ridden Cliff Shrubb frames, although Cliff isn't sure if he ever won on one. Indeed Cliff recollects that one year Sean Yates and Tony Doyle came 1st and 2nd, meaning that both 1st and 2nd place were taken by Shrubb frames!

Bernd Herkelmann - Germany
Bernd Herkelmann Lo-Pro
A super nice fillet brazed steel lo-pro form Germany. Custom made for some German sprinter back in the 80's by frame builder Bernd Herkelmann. Equipped with a mix of Campagnolo Pista and Gipiemme stuff, Mavic tubular rims. Awsome paintjob.
