KGS / Cyfac Absolu First Ride – Two Thumbs Up.

8 June 2011

I recently built up a KGS / Cyfac Absolu for the showroom and today I got to test it. Bike tests for me are not that long, but have hills, descents, cornering, hill attacks and some rough roads to see just how the bike measures up. The best compliment I can give a premium custom [...]

Unfriend me on Facebook, or not!

1 April 2011

Have you ever “un-friended” anybody on Facebook? I have, but only twice. Facebook has been a great way for me to network KGS Custom Bicycles and to reach out to people around the world. Right now, however, I am a victim of my own success. I have enough Facebook fans and friends that I cannot [...]

7 January 2011

KGS Bikes is in the custom bicycle business, yet we offer Parlee semi-custom models as well. We are asked many times, “What is the difference?” and it is really quite simple. The difference revolves around the way frames are chosen, and the confidence one will have of the correct position if a semi-custom frame is [...]

It’s a frame up!

1 November 2010

In expanding to Austin I have had the opportunity to meet many new people and talk about the value of a custom bicycle. Interestingly enough, I have been getting inquiries about the possibility of getting a new custom frame and transferring the parts from the existing bike. It must be a sign of the times [...]
