    Aston Martin's first foray into bicycle manufacture was the 1994 Aston Martin pursuit bike built for Tony Doyle to do a series of demonstration rides in North America to promote the DB9. It was essentially a Chas Roberts frame shrouded in carbon fibre to give teardrop sections to the downtube and seat stays. The rear of the seat tube was also profiled to wrap around the rear wheel. In addition it had a monobladed front fork and a bespoke aero section seatpost and stem. The wheels were Specialized DuPont tri spokes.

    In my honest opinion, its modern counterpart is certainly a bit of a let down in comparison.

    I have an old Tony Doyle bike.
    Sadly it is just an Ammaco 4130.
