What Happens When I Purchase?
You pick the color design that you like and we will start the build process. (link to color design below)
1. You will receive an email confirming your purchase. You have the opportunity to ask questions about the build and receive the build sheet.
2. We schedule a 30 minute call to hand select your options and size.
5. Customization will impact the delivery timeline. The standard F. Duarte designed bicycle in the pictures takes 8 to 10 weeks for delivery. Any additional customization will take longer.
6. We provide you updates along the way. We let you know when the frame is built and ready to ship, when we receive it in the store, and when we are ready to ship.
7. Final payment for additional customization is due before delivery.
8. Shipping is roughly $150 added to the cost of the bicycle purchase.
We look forward to building your Stainless Steel dream bicycle. Send us an email if you have any questions.
