There are so many high-quality builders in our Metro area alone, I could have a fabulous custom bike built just for me every year for the next ten years, and not run out of options.

I happen to think these customs are quite affordable as well.

We all have choices with our income.

Some choose to have a huge house or a very expensive car.

Those are choices that we don't buy into at this time.

My wife and I have some very nice bikes though, as we like the biking lifestyle.

It adds value to our lives on a weekly basis.

I would look to an artisan then for a new "Bridgestone" opportunity, but certainly not a Surly.

Grant had and still has a vision, as do the custom builders I have met and chatted with on occasion.
