Welcome to Jtek Engineering. We are a new cycling products company
working on some pretty cool new idea's for the cycling industry.

 

Dear Friends,

It is with much sadness and regret that I must shut down Jtek Engineering due to health issues. Two years ago I was diagnosed with colorectal cancer and have been fighting it ever since. The disease has progressed to the point where I can no longer work and keep the doors open. If at some point in time my health returns, I will open the doors again. Thank you for your part in making this self-owned and operated company a success.

Sincerely,

Jay Guthrie

Update:

Dear Customers,

We have reopened and are selling the shiftmate product directly to customers off our web site again. Jtek Engineering will now be operated under my son, Ryan's management. Lets wish him the best of luck! Other products will be added again in time.

Sincerely,

Jtek Engineering is a small company consisting of myself (Jay right side, Ryan left side) and Ryan is my son who has started helping me out in the shop. We are looking into seeing if Ryan can run the business and keep things going because of my illness. He has a lot to learn in a short amount of time!

This is a look inside our shop. I purchased my first used CNC milling machine in late 2006. We have 3 of them now. Boy has it been a lot of work learning how to program and run these things, but it has also been rewarding to be able to make everything in house. I use SolidWorks for all design and HSMwork for CAM programming on the machines. I sure like these software packages and have been a SolidWork guy about about 12 years now.
