The only completely vertically integrated bicycle company, sourcing all raw materials from the best US suppliers and manufacturing their own carbon tubes and forks. Swaged Colorado Concept tubes allow for the most tunable and refined ride available.
Cervelo
An engineering focused company that provides only pro-level bikes to the market. Nothing is added unless there is a performance benefit to each feature on their frames. No marketing fluff here, only countless victories.
Seven Cycles
One of the largest US based custom builders with the broadest range of framesets currently available. From city commuters to full-suspension mountain bikes, Seven’s titanium and Steel frames are tough to beat in terms of price and quality.
Orbea
From the heart of the Pyrenees, this Spanish company brings a new look to traditional European racing bikes. The only production bicycle company that has custom component packages available to spec the road or tri bike of your dreams.
parlee
Carbon only! Bob Parlee’s experience designing Olympic class carbon sailboats gave him the technical background to develop the lightest custom and stock carbon framesets available. Parlee offers the most stock sizes and custom tuning and build options on their frames than any other boutique builder.
Scott
Cutting edge tri and road bikes from a maker focusing on a full line-up of carbon and aluminum bikes. One of the first to use carbon fiber in a large capacity and at a variety of price points.
