We build bikes. Dream bikes. Bikes so beautiful you can’t look away. Bikes that make you stop, stare, and time stand still. Bikes that get better as they bed in, with a patina of wear that tells the story of every roll of the dice, out-and back, alpine descent, and work night sprint you ever sent.
If you're searching for a bike that reflects who you are and how you ride, it's time to talk custom. For some people, it's paint. Others, a choice of parts or a frame geometry that better fits their body. Sometimes it's all three and a whole lot more. But the end result is a one-of-a-kind bike that's entirely your own. And that's what we do here at Above Category. We love working with our clients to bring their ideas to life, creating bespoke bikes that provide a lifetime of pleasure, each and every ride.
American muscle, Italian elegance, or Australian innovation? Start your journey by selecting a frame from the world’s finest builders. Or let us help you decide. We’ve spent countless hours aboard every model from every brand we partner with, on different wheel widths, on every type of tire, with every make of groupset, all so we can help you find the perfect frame for your build.
If you’ve ever seen the perfect shade of blue in a Tuscan sky or caught a blur of British racing green speeding by on a country road and wondered whether you could capture it on a frame, you’ve come to the right place. From the avant-garde to rendering the perfect hue, we can turn your dream bike into a piece of rideable art that looks and performs like no another.
When it comes to completing your build, everything matters. We’ve been known to obsess over the size, colour and shape of water bottle mounts. And when did you last think about those? Exactly. And don’t even ask (ok, do) about derailleur alignment. Whether you’re looking to make a statement or create a classic, we'll select the perfect blend of finishing kit and components that make your bike a whole lot more than the sum of its parts.
We’ve spent years developing deep and meaningful relationships with our network of builders and brands, all so we can complete your custom build in the shortest possible amount of time. And while you wait, we’ll keep you updated at every turn, so you always know when your bike will be ready for pick up or scheduled for shipping to your door.
Lets talk your dream bike!
