BUILD OPTIONS

At Alpine Designs we have a lot of experience with the professional assembly of bicycles. Since 1992 we have handbuilt more than 3,000 complete bikes. Our experience, both in the shop and on the trail, has shaped our priorities concerning component choices. Our priority list for any bike we build goes as follows. We suggest you think about your next bike in this same manner.

1.) Frame - The most important component on your bike bar none. Fit, function and aesthetics are #1.

2.) Fork - A frame is designed around a fork's specifications. The fork has everything to do with handling and ride quality.

3.) Wheelset - The rotating mass on a bike is very important to the overal feel and handling characteristics and durability.

4.) Brakes - What goes up must come down. Good brakes equate to a safe, precise ride w/ less fatigue.

5.) Drivetrain - Gear ratios are important as is clean crisp shifting and reliability. But drivetrains wear out & you can easily upgrade parts here later if on a budget. SRAM components are our first choice. Got to the SRAM website for full color product info

6.) Top kit - If you are on a budget skimp here. Ask for the ultimate seatpost for xmas. Spend more on #1 & #2 now.

7.) Pedals - While an essential component they are not going to make or break the bike. Again spend more on #1 & #2.

* To calculate the price of a complete bike add component choice costs for # 1 - 7 together to find the package and price that best fits your needs and budget.
