Too hot to ride? Commission a Custom Bicycle for the fall!

8 August 2011

At KGS Custom Bicycles, the summer is the slowest time of the year. We don’t have a big repair department since most of our clientele hails from afar. Most of our clients or potential clients are vacationing, busy with kids, or riding the bike they currently have. What is interesting, however is the Fall Rally, [...]

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 [...]

How Robbie Wade had the luck of the Irish for the Cap Tex Triathlon

29 May 2011

While KGS custom triathlon bicycles provide huge improvements in performance for triathletes, few triathletes come investigate. Most either follow what is on Slowtwitch or are so risk averse that it could take over a year before they would consider even having their positions checked, much less consider a change. When pro triathlete Robbie Wade had [...]

Competence breeds Confidence in bicycling

11 May 2011

We love success stories. Part of the reason that we have so many success stories at KGS Bikes is this is what we set out to do in every client relationship. Every cyclist has something that can be improved. Improvement in some things is easier than others. Many cyclists, particularly women, have issues with confidence [...]

4 May 2011

The best part of being part of KGS Custom Bicycles is watching the look on a client’s face when they first get on their new custom bike. The next best thing is to get ride reports with photos that we can share with you. Guillermo and his lovely wife Eileen recently took possession of their [...]

Choosing the bike that is right for you. Why marketing departments make it difficult. They know you will be biased for them.

4 March 2011

In the custom bicycle business, KGS Bikes plays by different rules than the rest of the industry. Educating consumers so they can make objective decisions about the right bicycle to buy or whether their current bike is right or wrong for them is remarkably difficult. It seems that people aren’t really very good at listening [...]

If you don’t know bicycles, (or even if you do), know your bicycle dealer

2 March 2011

At KGS Bikes, I meet many people who are not bike racers, who are not bike mechanics. They simply want their bicycle to be comfortable and safe, want it to work well and they want the experience to be fun. Most people don’t understand the difference between a custom bicycle that is designed around them, [...]

23 February 2011

Many of you know of my fondness for Brooks products. This British company makes things for bicycles and bicycle owners that are either old school cool, retro cool, durable, comfortable or just plain “best in class”. Here is their Facebook page. I got a chance to see some of their new bags and was really [...]
