We work with you to craft the bike of your dreams. The process of
conceiving a custom built machine consists of a consultation on
components and a fitting. Our qualified fitters use multiple fit
methods in order to achieve an unparralled
level of comfort and riding efficiency. We take your goals, past rides
and injuries into account so that you and your bike are as one.
The heart of a custom bicycle is a unique built to order frame such as Waterford or Gunnar. Created through the process of translating a comprehensive set of your body measurments intergrated with an analysis of your usage, flexibiliy and expectations into a frame for life. This freedom of design is made possible through the experience, knowledge and skillful hands from masters of the craft. They forge more than just frames, they give life to works of art. Custom built bikes can also start from a stock frame from manufacturers such as Cannondale, Cinelli, Litespeed or Specialized provide framesets, factory specific, or built to any component mixture as you may desire.
We are able to advise you on build options with regards to compatablitiy, function, aesthetics and any special desires or requirements.
Following the fitting, our expert mechanics revel in the joy of constructing a one of a kind machine. We start with applying a coat of JP Weigle's Frame Saver into your steel frame in order to protect it from condensation that can develop within the frame. Following the 24 hour curing process we proceed to prepare your frame for assembly. Our attention to detail continues to shine throughout the lifetime of your bike giving you not just a satisfying fit but a reliable riding
machine for the ages.
