Zinn Cycles Design Philosophy

Lennard Zinn is one of the world’s leading experts in designing and building bikes for big and tall cyclists, petite women, and cyclists with injuries. For over 40 years, he has been committed to improving the performance and durability of big and tall bikes and bikes for women. He has worked closely with Dr. Andy Pruitt to design bikes for cyclists who have suffered from injuries, reduced mobility, knee, back, and neck problems, and many other ailments. Through his work, he has helped countless cyclists enjoy the benefits of cycling without suffering from the pain and discomfort that can often accompany it.

Creating the perfect ride for big and tall riders takes much more than using larger frames and components. Each individual is different, and if there are any miscalculations, it can affect handling and make it unstable. As a result, simply scaling up a bike frame is not an effective way to build a custom bike for big and tall people. Instead, bike builders must consider several factors, such as riders’ heights and proportions, to create a stable and comfortable ride. With the right design, a custom bike can provide a big and tall rider with an enjoyable and efficient riding experience.

First, poorly designed bikes can result in high-speed frame shimmy. Shimmy is a dangerous by-product that can cause serious injuries. Second, the builder must consider the added weight when making their bike. Thicker tubes result in a heavier frame, which may be problematic when trying to eliminate shimmy. Third, if you have a tall cyclist without the right fork for their height, they will be uncomfortable. Fourth, a bike with factory-sized crank lengths can make the rider feel unnatural while pedaling.

The length of the crank arms on a bike is vital to custom bike designs. At Zinn Cycles, we take great care in designing bikes with proportional crank lengths. Our selection includes options from 130mm up to 220mm, so we can properly fit any person. Whether you’re looking for a specific size or want to browse our inventory, we’re sure you’ll find the perfect option for you. Lennard has developed some innovative frame design concepts and solves all sorts of problems, big and small.

With over four decades of experience in the biking industry, Lennard Zinn is one of the most respected bicycle designers in the world. His bikes have seen victory in races all over the globe. When you ride a Zinn bike, you can be confident that you’re getting the best possible performance and comfort. If you’re looking for a bike that will give you an edge over the competition, look no further than a Zinn design. Order yours today!

Add S&S Couplers for easy travel

Any cyclist knows the importance of having a bike that can endure long trips. After all, part of the appeal of biking is the ability to see different sights while getting some exercise. However, packing a bike onto an airplane or a car can be difficult, as bikes are often too large to fit into standard travel cases. That is where S&S couplings come in. By adding couplers to your frame, we can create a travel-friendly bike that easily fits into an airline regulation case. The process does not reduce frame strength, and couplings are often the most reliable point on the tube. So if you’re looking for a durable travel bike, consider opting for one with S&S couplings.

At Zinn, we specialize in shipping bikes, so we know a thing or two about packing them for transport. One question we get is whether 29ers, Touring bikes with racks and fenders, and e-bikes can fit in an airline regulation case. The answer is that it depends on the bike. Some bikes may require a secondary bag or case to carry bike parts, but others may only require a regulation case. If you’re unsure whether your bike will fit, contact us, and we’ll be happy to help. We can even build your bike with S&S couplers to make it easier to pack and ship. So whatever your bike shipping needs, Zinn Cycles has you covered.
