Meet the Maker: Darren Baum of Baum Cycles

Darren Baum of Baum Cycles likely needs little introduction. Coming into his 25th year of business, the Geelong-based builder is world-renowned for his arguably flawless steel and titanium machines. These days Baum Cycles consists of a team of makers that work within a large (by custom bike standards) manufacturing facility. We’ve taken a tour of the facility before and it remains the pinnacle building space amongst Australian frame makers: In the short video above Baum talks through his personal Orbis all-road machine.
