MSH1 Bicycle Works
Design and Build Philosophy

Construct World Class Bicycle Frames, using traditional bicycle frame building
techniques, finely handcrafted and fabricated with my hands.

The Bicycle and Rider are a System which must be purposefully optimized.

Maintain and cultivate " Fundamentals Based " methods that are true to the Craft
of traditional frame building.

Design, tune and fabricate each bicycle frame one at a time to order, utilizing my
" True-Handling & Fingerprint-Fit " processes and methodologies.

Make frames that are genuinely custom and truly handmade via a fabrication
process refined to have an extremely small carbon footprint, using no machinery.

True-Handling & Fingerprint-Fit™
Frame Design-Fit Process

I interview the client to discuss several inputs critical to the design and tuning of
their custom frame, including riding style, their other bikes, the intended use for
the frame, plus present and future goals. Merging this information with the client's
body measurements, I establish the optimum frame geometry & material for the
purpose. In parallel, aesthetic details are reviewed, personalizing the frame for the
client, and synergizing the aesthetics with the overall design theme. Over a period
of time, this process is refined to the utmost, via several iterations through
continued interactions and information exchange with the client.

Once the design is finalized, I then handbuild the frame and fork using traditional
framebuilding techniques, handcrafted, made-to-measure, tailor designed
specifically for each client.

As an option to compliment the bicycle, I will generate a documentation suite,
including any combination of CAD drawings, specification sheets, and fabrication
photos. If desired, I assemble the client's frame with any combination of
components.
