stainless bike

If you want to push the slider of lightness and rigidity further than steel, stainless steel is for you. Still little-known, stainless steel is a confidential and high-end material, which will make your future bike a lively and responsive machine. Its great rigidity and solidity make it possible to further refine the tube thicknesses, resulting in light and dynamic frames. Its properties make it a corrosion-resistant material, which will not rust, which can then be painted, or left raw. We work exclusively with the XCR range from Columbus, whose properties are exceptional. Our frames are worked with silver brazing, in order to keep tube junctions soft and fluid, as well as great freedom to personalize your future bike.

01 / CONTACT

We can meet in person at the workshop, but we can also chat by email, phone or Skype.

03 / FITTING SESSION

We will welcome you to the workshop for a complete measurement and a dynamic test on a study bike.

If you can't come to us, no problem. You can have your bike fitting carried out by a professional near you, and, if you wish, we can even contact them to explain what we need

05 / MANUFACTURING AND PAINTING

Once the drawing has been validated, we make your frame. We will keep you informed of the project progress with photos of the main stages of manufacture.

Painting and finishing is also an important step where you will be involved. We will best help you choose the graphic design of your future bike, with simulations and samples.

07/ RECEPTION/ EXPEDITION

Your bike is ready! It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. Reception will take place at the workshop if you can come. Otherwise we will send it to you, regardless of where you live. (additional charges will be added)

We will ask you to pay the remaining balance before delivery
