Rob McLaren
Managing Director
Rob's first engineering feat was while at High School when he designed and built his own mountain bike. It's fair to say the bike was no Specialized but it set him on a course of creating leading edge engineering solutions. Rob is a third generation McLaren to operate the business, following in the footsteps of his father Bruce (not of F1 fame) and grand father Reg. Rob takes a common sense approach to engineering and likes adding sleek design and simple SMART technology to equipment.
