As much as it would be awesome if you already knew everything there is to know about finishing carbon fiber frames, we 100% do not expect nor require it! Our hope is to help a motivated, positive, attentive craftsperson learn everything there is to know to produce these beautiful machines so we can continue to make our customers’ dream bikes come to life.

You’ll work within a small, dedicated team, learning about materials we use and how to best work with them, while ensuring frames meet quality standards and customer specifications. We lead with a smile on our face, an optimistic outlook and with a kind firmness. You should expect the same.
