frames to measure

Why bother with
a custom frame?
If you can find a suitable frame of the
peg, don't bother with a custom frame. This will save you money, and a
long wait.
However having a custom frame built can
be worthwhile if you have special requirements concerning construction
or finish, or if your bodydimensions don't comply with the average according
to the frame factories.
That will be the case with very small
or very large sizes (our jig will take a 76cm frame), or bikes for females,
but that isn't the biggest market. We find that a surprisingly large number
of customers of ordinary size have shorl legs for their size. And they
will be far happier on a small frame with a long toptube, than with a stock
frame and an oversize stem, because the latter solution destroys the weight
distribution. |
