About Us
Doc and Marty, cycling enthusiasts who believe that repair and repurpose is better than rotting and rusting. We build quality bikes, refurbish parts, reunite wheelsets and modernized performance. Our frames are (mostly) not new, they have been pre-loved and will show signs of their history, freshly rebuilt and ready for the future.
