Just buy a Canyon

Just buy a Canyon.  Seriously, I’m sure you can find a bike in their range that suits you. Reasonable value and delivered to your door in days.   They are everywhere so it should be easy to get spares when it breaks.

They get pumped out of a high quality factory in Taiwan (who also make loads of other good bikes).

Order a custom Selwyn and it will take several months to get your bike.

You will have to have a bike fit to get the geometry exactly right for you before we start building your frame.

You will have to decide what components to put on it.

You will have to decide what colour it will be and how much detail you have in the paintwork.

Ideally you will come and pick it up from our workshop in Dream Valley and have to go riding here.

And after all that you will end up with a bike from a small brand that not many people have heard of.  No fashion points here I’m afraid.

What you will have is a bike that has been designed, built, painted and assembled entirely for you.  For how and where you ride.

Oh and it will be made of steel.  So it will be way more enjoyable and comfortable to ride than that Canyon.  As a result you will probably ride faster and further.
