In partnership with SRAM, the organizers of BESPOKED, Europe’s largest handbuilt bike show, are once again calling on framebuilders from diverse backgrounds to apply for the SRAM x BESPOKED Inclusivity Scholarship, which provides resources and support and offers a chance to attend and exhibit at the BESPOKED Dresden show in Germany from October 10th to 12th, 2025.
Scholarship recipients will receive a fully funded stand at the BESPOKED Dresden show, mentorship from experienced industry experts, media coverage through SRAM and BESPOKED’s channels, and components from SRAM. Some of our favorite show bikes have come from Inclusivity Scholarship recipients, and the program offers a unique opportunity to elevate up-and-coming builders.

Speaking to the program, BESPOKED organizer Petor Georgallou writes, “If you don’t see people like you represented fairly in cycling, we encourage you to apply. If you’re uncertain of your eligibility, apply regardless—you will not be taking a place from another candidate. BESPOKED and SRAM engage in a thorough selection process focused on fostering genuine, long-term change within the cycling community.”
Application opens tomorrow, Wednesday, June 4th, 2025. The deadline to apply is a month away, on July 4th. Recipients will be notified by July 25th. Find further details over at Bespoked.cc.
