Drivetrain, wheels, cockpit, and (especially!) paint – there’re a lot of considerations for building up a custom bike. If you’ve decided on an ALLIED but haven’t yet settled on spec and paint, then you can make a deposit on the frame to get into the production queue and buy time on the rest of those questions.
While we’re building your frame, we’ll also follow up to check the boxes for parts and pigments, including our standard paint options or a full-custom job. At current lead times, you’ll have around six weeks to finalize your ALLIED’s build and paint, after which we’ll collect the remaining balance, paint your frame, and assemble your bike.
If you change your mind, we’ll refund the deposit, so no pressure – this is just a tool to help you jump the line while working through the final details with our sales team.
