It may surprise some to find out how many of my customers are not necessarily very experienced riders. What they do know is that they love cycling and would rather not go through multiple bicycles getting to the one they should have. It often even saves money in that one is not buying 2 or 3 bikes that depreciate heavily before they get what they really want. Hopefully that is where the custom frame builder can guide the customer.
Have many great adventures on that bike.

Dave: you put it very nicely. Bob Brown is both a custom tandem builder and also a tandem rider. He is able to build something that has a great likelihood of being the one tandem that will work right from the start. I will be making up the experience rapidly!
