Custom is never going to be cheap but it gives the freedom of allowing you to build exactly what you want. This frame was build by a good friend who is starting to build custom frames under the name “kemponents”.
I have found that similar steel frame makers usually charge in the region of £700 – £1000 depending on what you want.
The frame was then painted by a company called 7potcustom in Bristol.
This build purposely isn’t cheap as I was fed up with heavy and slow feeling winter bikes, I ride roughly 300 miles a week commuting to and from work and training for MTB XC so it made sense to really splash out on something I really wanted.
Bike weights 20lbs as pictured or 22 by the time it has my saddle bag and lights fitted.
