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.
