About us

Based in Manchester, United Kingdom, RubberPigs is a labour of love for Paul and Bart – a couple of gearheads who make everything out of their home workshop.

With Paul and Bart, you're not just a customer, you're a member of the RubberPigs family and they're more than happy to help you create a custom design and have a chat about your gear needs, regardless of experience. Please feel free to bring any pictures, sketches of any ideas you would like to discuss.
