CNC Machining for Custom Bicycle Frames

In the world of cycling, the quest for the perfect ride is often synonymous with the pursuit of the perfect frame. For discerning cyclists, custom bicycle frames represent the pinnacle of this journey, offering a tailored fit, optimized performance, and a unique aesthetic. At the heart of crafting these highperformance machines lies a critical manufacturing process: CNC machining. Our company specializes in providing comprehensive, onestop CNC machining services that empower frame builders to turn their most ambitious designs into reality.



CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses computercontrolled machines to remove material from a solid block—typically aluminum, titanium, or even steel—with unparalleled precision. For custom frames, this translates to the ability to create complex, lightweight, and incredibly strong components that are impossible to achieve with traditional tubing alone. Key applications include:

Precision Lugs and Joints: CNC machining produces perfectly mitered lugs and bottom bracket shells, ensuring flawless alignment and superior weld integrity. This is crucial for the frame's stiffness, durability, and overall ride quality.
Custom Dropouts and Hangers: We machine intricate rear dropouts with integrated derailleur hangers, offering perfect wheel alignment and shift accuracy. These components can be customized for various axle standards and geometries.
Integrated Components: From sleek cable routing guides and chainstay bridges to custom headset caps and brake mounts, CNC machining allows for seamless integration of functionality directly into the frame's design, reducing weight and improving aerodynamics.

Our role as your onestop manufacturing partner is to handle the entire process from your CAD files to the final, anodized, or painted parts. We utilize advanced 3, 4, and 5axis CNC mills and lathes to handle complex geometries from a wide range of materials. Our expertise in designing for manufacturability (DFM) ensures that your innovative designs are not only feasible but also costeffective and structurally sound. We deliver components with exceptional surface finishes and tolerances as tight as ±0.005 inches, guaranteeing a perfect fit every time.
