Every bicycle that leaves Ira Ryan Cycles is made by hand from start to finish and uses the finest hand picked tubing and lugs from world class manufacturers such as Columbus and Dedaciaai. I also work with local fabricators, designers and paint shops to produce one of a kind bicycles that reflect the style and craftsmanship that one looks for in a bespoke bicycle. While most of the bikes I build are lugged, I also build fillet brazed bicycles for road, touring, cyclo-cross, track and mountain biking. No two bikes are alike and I am happy to answer any questions about what you are looking for in a hand-built bicycle.

Fixed gear or single speed frame: $1900
Road or cyclo-cross frame: $2200
Touring or mountain bike frame: $2300

Being a small shop, I can build almost any part or component. Light mounts, racks with wooden slats or internal wiring in a stem, I can do it all. If you are looking for something specific, please inquire and I will quote you a price.
Paint-
I use Coat paint shop for all my bicycles. They do a fantastic job and it shows in the final product. The basic powder coat paint job is included with the cost of the frame. This is almost any color with a liquid clear coat over the top for maximum luster.
Additional colors add $60 per color.
Liquid paint offers unlimited options with colors, metallics and pearls leaving you with a show quality finish that will last.
Liquid paint starts at $300.
Final assembly and wheelbuilding-
Components and build kits are the final step to any bicycle leaving the shop. I offer custom built packages from Campagnolo, Shimano and Sram as well as parts from boutique brands and other small companies.
Drivetrain and groupos vary but typically start around $1200 for Sram Rival or Shimano 105 and top out around $3500 for Campy Super Record or Dura Ace. These prices include all parts such as saddle, bars and tires. Please let me know what you are looking for and I can put together a quote for you.
Ira Ryan Cycles also builds custom wheels with your choice of hubs and rims to fit your new bicycle. Again there are a wide variety of choices and options. I charge $60 per wheel for a custom wheelbuild.
The final assembly is the last step before the bike leaves the shop and can take up to two days to do for a bike with fenders, racks, lights, etc. I charge $150 per bike for this last step.
