Choosing your bike: Factory frames or custom-designed and hand-made?
Although today's cycling market has a wide selection of high-quality "off the rack" frames and bicycles, a custom frame
remains a great choice for many riders. Why consider a custom bicycle? Consider a few reasons why custom might be right
for you:
- Correctly fits your physique
- Better suited to your riding style
- Designed for your type of racing
- Custom paint, designed by your or by artistic license
- Choice of tubing, whether steel, aluminum, titanium, or carbon
- . . . custom bikes are unique, like their riders
Obviously, we like bikes of all kinds (well, we like nice bikes), but there is something special about a custom-designed
frame, measured, made, and built only for you.

customer responsiveness. There are many great custom builders out there, but we highly recommend a few select builders:
