I’ve been KRUCH since the first time someone shot me a puck or threw me a Lacrosse ball. It’s a truncated version of my last name, Kruchkowski, and it’s stuck after all these years. But you can call me Corey.

 

In 2018, a lifetime of cycling passion and decades of hobbyist metal working came together. With encouragement and support from my Father, I built my first bicycle frame for myself (for bicycle polo). Soon after, folks in the local community expressed interest, and orders started coming in. It started with mountain bikes, but quickly grew to include gravel bike frames as well. 

​

Hundreds of hand-made frames (and recently included, a factory-made option) later, the fire in my belly has never burned hotter. 

 

My mission is to build bicycle frames for people that treat bicycling as a lifestyle. The solitary philosopher. The two-wheeled adventurer. Those that demand the ultimate vision of their own “perfect bike”. 

 

When I hand you your frame, I’m handing you a piece of my art. Artwork that I have alchemized from themes of music, athleticism, exceptionalism and exploration. Welded into the DNA of each of my frames is my knowledge, my sobriety, my strength, my fabrication experience, my attention to detail, and my passion for cycling.
