Custom Bikes
I'm in the process of obtaining a Indy Fab. What I'm wondering is how many forum members have gone the custom route and what their experiences were. I'm used to the method of riding bikes that you might be interested until you find the "right" one, than being set up with a fit. The bike would than be purchased. It's a bit of an odd feeling to put total trust in the frame builder after only a set of measurements and some other relevent data about your current ride, why you might like or dislike it and other thoughts which you feel might be relevent.
I can only assume the process is very accurate. I don't think I've ever heard anyone complain about a custom bike that they purchased. I guess I'm just a little nervous having never gone through the process. My LBS is managing the purchase and he has had several bikes built by IF. He has said on several occasions that he believes that the bike will fit me better than anything off a mass production line. Anyway, my interest is in the process as opposed to the builder.
If anyone has thoughts or comments I would appreciate you sharing them. This forum is seldom short on information. I have already contacted NOS88 and he was very helpful as usual.
