WELCOME
ACTOFIVE Cycles is dedicated to providing high-quality mountain bike frames and components that are designed and manufactured in Germany by using a unique CNC manufacturing technique developed in-house. With a focus on technical innovation and aesthetic design, owner Simon Metzner brings his expertise as a mechanical engineer and mountain biker to create bikes with an exclusive character. Since 2018, Actofive has developed multiple frame platforms and components that cater to various types of mountain biking, from fast and fun XC riding to the demanding challenges of the Enduro World Series.
CNC MACHINED
Each component is meticulously manufactured in our state-of-the-art facility in Dresden, Germany, in collaboration with our sibling company METZNER Engineering GmbH. We utilize cutting-edge CNC manufacturing equipment and precise measuring systems to ensure the utmost precision and quality. The main parts of our components undergo approximately 22 hours of processing time, during which 38 Kg of 7075-T6 aluminium is machined to perfection. We are committed to sustainability, and recycle both the chips and larger residual parts produced during the machining process.
Once the machining process is complete, we dedicate a further eight hours of manual work, including bonding and finishing, for each individual frame. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees that every frame meets our high standards of excellence and creates an exclusive character to our bikes.
EXQUISITE CRAFTMANSHIP
Producing an ACTOFIVE frame is a labor of love. With so much dedication and precision required, we’ve set a limit to maintain the highest standards. From the initial design to the final assembly, every step is carefully executed, resulting in a masterpiece that is as unique as you are.

Our little factory on the edge of town here in Dresden is home to some pretty high-tech machinery that we use to build our frames, cranks, and other parts.
We use large area, high-precision, 3-axis gantry milling technologies by PORTATEC Portalfräsanlagen. These technologies were developed for the aviation industry, and although our bikes aren’t airplanes, they really do fly!*
At the heart of our milling process is a large claw pump vacuum clamping system with which we clamp parts down to 0.8mm wall thickness at around -0.8bar, or 8000kg per square meter! Our vacuum pump is adapted perfectly to our production method, but in its simplest form, it’s really similar to the technologies used in massive scale component manufacturing for the aviation industry.

@blahavo ´s 2024 race bike is here and it`s crazyyy good! We had an idea to do each side different color a few months back and made it reality! It looks insane.

Two Face. By machining two frame half’s, anodizing and then bonding them together with adhesive we´re allowed to combine different colors. Sick!
Which color combination would you go for?

We couldn’t be more stoked to have @blahavo on board again this year.
We wish him a lot of fun and success for the upcoming World Cup season!

Inside view. Very few people have ever seen this view. Rarely in person, and never on the internet.
The quality of our finishing work isn’t just a pretty exterior, but a smooth and cleanly finished interior. A big part of how and why we do this relates to our production method.
Wall thicknesses are variable, we add and remove material all over the work piece to build the strongest structure possible with the materials we use. With the P-TRAIN the wall thickness goes down to 1mm, and with the I-TRAIN down to about 0.8mm.
On top of variable wall thickness, we also machine all sorts of ribbing and other strengthening structures into the frame to alter and add stiffness where and how we want it.
