At Studio Velo, passion + precision + performance demands that each bicycle is custom built for you starting with the finest hand-crafted frames from a few select American, Canadian, French and Italian frame builders. Not every frame needs to be custom built in order to match your specs, but every bike should be custom tailored to you.

For this reason, we build each and every bicycle from the frame up to be one rider’s perfect match.

Independent Fabrications Custom Bikes

This Somerville, MA, employee-owned company embodies "pride of ownership." The finest designers, welders and painters in the industry work collectively with only the highest grade materials on the market. IF takes custom bikes (Titanium, Stainless Steel, Steel, and Ti/Carbon bikes) to a whole new level.

Independent Fabrications Mortirolo Factory Lightweight Steel

This amazing value is also one of the lightest models IF produces. The Factory Lightweight pushes the evelope on max performance while limiting grams everywhere. A custom blend of Reynolds 853 Pro Team and True Temper S3 tubes, this bike will blow away your friends without blowing away your bank account. Stiff and light it still rides like steel. A more durable, more comfortable race bike, or an awesome mile chewing machine for the weekends, the FLW is an excellent choice.

Independent Fabrications XS Carbon Ti

In one word, Exquisite. In two, The Ride and three, Welds, Lugs and Finish. Years of passion and expertise come together in one of the world's most technically advanced and aesthetically pleasing road frames. Laser cut Ti chain stays and lugs join custom carbon main tubes to create a masterpiece of design and function. Each XS is a one-of-a-kind ride, individually tuned and geometry-tweaked per rider. Like all of us, no two are alike. The last word, Superior.

Independent Fabrications SSR 953 Stainless Steel

In this age of carbon and super alloys, everyone wants lighter, stiffer, better. IF teamed with Carpenter Technologies and Reynolds to develop just that. The SSR has the classic resilient ride of the steel we all know and love, but is lighter, stiffer, stronger than anything ever before. Stronger than Ti and as light as many carbon frames, you'll have to ride it to believe. One of the most innovative bikes of the last decade, you can expect to keep your Stainless Steel Road frame for decades to come.
