The fusion of online prices, local bike shop service and knowledge and a rider who knows what they want their bike to do, but unsure how to achieve it. In this project we were more like a personal shopper and tailor. Finding the best price on a bike that suits the purpose and altering it to suit the rider and budget. Buying aluminum bikes as a frame only option is getting harder and harder.
