Squires Smith, a collegiate cyclists, half-decent
mechanic, and an all-around bicycle enthusiast
is the visionary behind Altangle. It all began with
Squires imagining and sketching a bike
maintenance device that he and his teammates
needed, but never found.These original designs
sparked several years of tweaking, modeling, and
modifying and evolved slowly into the products
we offer today, starting with the Hangar.

As is often the case, the Hangar is a product born
of necessity, and fueled by passion and
inspiration. While Squires began his professional
career in industrial construction, he continued to
develop and plan, and of course, always, to ride.
Scott, Squires' brother, made his way through the
worlds of investment banking and private equity.
