The Guide includes photos, frame geometry for each sized model and specifications on materials used, seat post and headset diameter. We ask you call for the most current price because we can generally create a very competitve price on the phone and allow you to take advantage of manufacturers current inventories and discounts.

We have good relationships with all these frame makers. Privately each of them asks we not advertise their frames at prices much below their suggested retail. By following their request we actually get on time deliveries and their co-operation. But we don't want to loose a sale, if a competitor of ours is willing to advertise the frame for less... call it to our attention..

We will beat any verifiable competitor's price by at least $50.

SYCIP

A couple of cousins who are frame builders live not too far from here. They are Jay and Jeremy Sycip. They have growing reputation in the Bay Area and make Road MTB and Tandem frames. They haven't established a group of specific models but choose to make each frame to order allowing the frames to be rider specific. Each frame is made using the best choice of steel tubes for the specific frame needed. The frame tubes can be fillet brazed or TIG welded to order. Jay and Jeremy haven't completely established relationships with stores to represent them but we want people to know about them. Again, except for a "prodcution" MTB frame they keep in stock, each frame is designed and custom made to order. Here are typical charges for frame types.
