While off-the-shelf bikes make sense for many riders in terms of fit and price, serious cyclists want a more personal relationship with their machine. Here at Suck Creek, we’ve been building custom bikes for our dedicated customers for over 10 years.

1. We’ll use our Fit Kit expertise to get a good baseline of measurements for a frame and cockpit that will respond to your every input…
2. We’ll discuss your riding style and terrain preferences…
3. Then we’ll take you for a ride on our favorite trails or asphalt and get a little more info and insight into your skills and needs…

After we understand your physical and psychological needs, we’ll recommend frames from our many stock and custom vendors, then begin working on a budget for finishes, gruppo and components to round out your ride.

Fixed Gear bikes make great cruisers for the downtown area. This was a dad-n-lad project to provide Gilligan’s 15 year old son some transpo for the summer.

Behold! il Nero Celeste:

• Early-80s Bianchi racing frame, Shimano 600 crank & headset donated by everyone’s favorite Chattanooga cycling couple, Daisy & Hugh.
• Wheelset from a Bianchi Pista.
• Cane Creek CrosStop lever working a Shimano 105 caliper.
• Thomson seatpost from a Southern Off-Road Bicycle Association raffle. Flite Ti saddle resurfaced by the boy with heirloom leather.
• Jamis cruiser bar (flipped), Syncros stem, Wellgo platform pedals and all other bits-n-pieces from the Suck Creek Cycle parts bin.
