Our Process

How Your Custom Build Comes Together

STEP 01

You tell us how you ride

Through a short questionnaire, we learn about your riding style, position, goals and budget — nothing unnecessary.

STEP 02

We define the right direction

Based on real experience, we recommend a clear build direction — frame, geometry, groupset and key components.

STEP 03

You decide, we build

No pressure. If it feels right, we build your bike exactly as specified — assembled, tuned and ready to ride.

Custom Upgrades

The Most Effective Upgrade We Recommend

For many riders, the right wheels deliver most of the performance benefit of a new bike — without replacing the bike.

Wheels change how a bike accelerates, handles and feels on the road more than almost any other component. That’s why we often start with wheels — chosen specifically for how and where you ride.

  • Lighter rotating mass for faster acceleration
  • Improved aerodynamics without sacrificing comfort
  • A ride feel that transforms your existing bike

Unique experience

The moment I stepped into the shop, Anze introduced himself and shook my hand, setting the tone for a unique customer experience. The vibe was like chatting with an old friend who was giving me advice, rather than someone just trying to make a sale. I ended up purchasing some Assos bibs and left the shop with not just a great product, but also a tone of information. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality products and top-notch service.
