About Quella Bicycle

Written by the company

We believe that the fixed-gear single-speed bike market is full of well-known brands selling uninspired, low-quality bikes at extortionate prices. Having been keen cyclists for all of our lives we think you deserve better.

Fixies exist at the unique intersection of thoroughbred track racing and urban fashion. Quella was created to encompass the best of both. We combine vintage inspired, minimalist British design and 21st Century track technology to create elegant, timeless bikes that function at the top end of the fixie market and, importantly, don’t break the bank.

Since our launch Quella has evolved into a company with big brand capability and small brand personality, with customer service at the forefront of all we do. Our bikes are hand-built in our ‘Old Egg Shed’ on the outskirts of Cambridge by our experienced team of bike-builders, allowing you almost limitless freedom in the builds that we can undertake.

Appalling quality of bike

Appalling quality of bike, loose spokes to the point a spoke nipple worked loose and fell into the wheel housing, rust setting in within weeks on multiple components. Essentially uncycleable despite having given it months to see if it bedded in with extensive maintenance. Unless you are willing to spend a lot of time repairing suggest avoid

Bought this bike brand new and the rear…

Bought this bike brand new and the rear valve was faulty from day one. The tyre cannot be inflated and even two different bike shops were unable to get it working. Very disappointing quality control. Cheap components and poor reliability. I would avoid this brand.

No customer service

Ordered a bike about 6-8 weeks ago. Delivery date at checkout 8-12th may. Days pass. No delivery, no communication. Chase it up by phone and email. Eventually get an email saying that a delivery to then has been delayed so unable to fulfil order currently. Since then… nothing. Chasing up by email… nothing. Bad customer service that I assume would similarly go awol if there was a problem with the bicycle if (ever) it arrives with a problem.

Fixed Delivery Mixup

I ordered parts from Quella. I never noticed that the website now has a collection option and the parcel accidentally got delivered to the Quella pick up point.
However, when I informed them, they sorted out a new delivery straight away and I received it in good time.

Quella fixie purchase

I recently purchased a bicycle from Quella and have been thoroughly impressed with both the product and the service. The bike is exceptionally high quality and looks fantastic, exceeding my expectations in both design and craftsmanship. Although there was a slight miscommunication regarding the delivery, their customer service team handled the situation brilliantly and resolved it quickly with outstanding professionalism. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was second to none, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Quella to anyone looking for a premium bicycle and excellent after-sales support.

DO NOT PURCHASE FROM QUELLA

DO NOT PURCHASE FROM QUELLA. Absolute disgrace of a business. 2-3 days delivery stated during purchase process.

Now one week later and getting no communications from them at all, despite contacting them via every available means multiple times.

I do get marketing emails from them, however I will definitely not be giving them any further money... what an absolute joke.... worst business I've ever dealt with.

AVOID!

Avoid purchasing from this company - terrible experience

Avoid purchasing from this company! Customer service at this company is terrible. Ordered my bike back in April and was told it was going to be shipped within a couple of days. It's the middle of May and I still haven't got my bike. It makes me wonder what's actually going on with this company, whether it's just about to go out of business. No response from the online chat or if you do get a response, it's about two weeks later when you call the business. They never pick up except for bizarrely on a Friday afternoon when someone tells you that you're going to get it the next week, but you never do. Their lack of transparency is shocking.

Very poor customer service

Very poor customer service, delivery was two weeks late. Was told that I would receive parts for repair and never arrived, contacting them a couple of times without reply.
Some parts broke within 3 months and warranty is only for two months, a real statement to how much the manufacturers trust their own parts.

Easy ordering system, great bike customistation

Easy ordering system and we able to customise bike. Bike packaged up for delivery really well and was easy to assemble. Bike itself looks great and looking forward to riding soon!

Only issue was that they had erroneously missed off my cycle to work scheme voucher which delayed my order by a day but this was rectified very quickly (though they did not confirm this over email).

New wheels

Had my Quella single speed for about 4 years. Commute daily, takes an absolute battering. Desperately needed a new wheel - hub had perished. Expected a simple hub but tyres and inner tube included too which made it much more straightforward to swap out.
Look better than the originals too

Cherry is hot!

Quella is an Italian feminine demonstrative adjective/pronoun that translates to "that" or "that one" in English. This was an aptly chosen name for I can confirm that my Quella Edinburgh, single speed, manages to turn heads of passersby young and old and all genders.
The ability to customise and add on with these bikes makes for a really personalised and stylish finish. My grey frame with black and brown wheels and the brown bull horn handlebar and seat looks stunning.
The service was brilliant and hiccups were dealt with in a timely and understanding manner and a lot of advice was imparted as I was new to road bikes. I am keenly cycling to work and purchased this through the Halfords Cycle to Work Scheme. I've also recently purchased a used car from Skoda after parting with my Fabia of 11 years and I promoted Quella on my Google review, showing that Skoda and Quella are my perfect marriage. Clear style, passion and endorsement of riding regardless of fashion or trends, forever. I have attached a photo of myself with my new bike 'Cherry' and my old Fabia. Lots of love to Quella colleagues and to those that are considering a purchase. P.S. Single speed bikes are incredible for improving your fitness level; don't be scared of the challenge.

Now happy...

Bought bike on 27/03/26.
Since purchase date nothing has changed with the order.
Still patiently waiting for any update on this order that was advertised as 2-3 business day delivery.
Its now Friday 03/04/26 and order still has no update, no expected dispatch date or delivery window.
Tried the online chat, no response.
Emailed on Wednesday, no response.
Not too impressed so far.
Quella got in touch, really helpful.
Whilst the initial order came through to my email, any following correspondence from Quella was going to a misspelt email, not sure whose mistake but all sorted now.
Bike arriving in next couple of weeks as the frame was out of stock.
Theyve been really helpful since.
Looking forward to getting bike..

eBike shipped to Cyprus

My bike was shipped to Cyprus and we had a lot of problems with DHL on both sides and Quella did there utmost to get things resolved. 5* so far. The bike is great and well worth the wait. My only tiny quibble is that one of their mechanics had connected to the hub for testing purposes and didn't remove the connection so I couldn't connect to the hub. It took a day so for Quella to resolve this. If I could give 4 1/2 star I would.
