Company History
Lauge Jensen translated Scandinavian craft to the American-style cruiser: hand-finished frames, jewel-like machining, deep paint, and ergonomics tailored to each owner. Early bikes used Euro-compliant V-twins tuned for creamy midrange, paired with quality suspension and brakes so the ride matched the finish. Investment from Anders Kirk Johansen (LEGO family) funded ambitious concepts—including a striking ‘Viking’—and deeper homologation work. Volumes remained intentionally tiny; the value proposition was exclusivity, build quality, and a personal relationship with the factory. Historically, Lauge Jensen illustrates how small European builders can reinterpret cruiser language without kitsch, focusing on longevity—hardware you can service for decades—and materials that age gracefully. Each bike is less product than commission: a rolling object where stance, sound, and touch have been obsessed over until the whole becomes quietly special.
