THE FRAMEs
Titanium has long been regarded as the “forever bike” material — a smooth ride, extremely durable, yet lightweight, stiff, and strong. It’s got all the right buzzwords.
In a cycling world dominated by carbon, our opinion is that Titanium can provide as good a ride if not better, plus have the longevity and durability that can’t be guaranteed by carbon.
It’s a frame that we want to ride: in stock form, it’s a geometry designed to be fast, zippy, and fun; an oversized Ti tubeset to make it feel right under power and torque; the industry standard Enve Carbon road, all road, or gravel fork for the best front end ride quality and integrity; quiet and clean internal routing; flat mount disc brakes or standard caliper brakes; and room for your preference of tire width and gearing, based on getting you the best combination of grip, comfort, and speed.
We can build your dream bike as a road bike, all road bike, gravel bike, or even as a hardtail mountain bike. It can be built with a stock geometry, but ideally, we build it custom just for you. And to make it easier, we do not charge any extra for custom. No nickel and diming, and no hidden charges. When you order a Haley, you’re getting a bike built exactly for you; for where you ride, and how you ride. Why sacrifice?
In a nutshell, Haleys just makes sense.

The details
Frames can be ordered in our Factory Stock road or gravel geometries, or as our full custom OS Straight or OS Butted dream build options.
US built Ti with an oversized tube set. Keeps the frame laterally and torsionally stiff for excellent feedback, straight line efficiency, and cornering precision.
Dropped seat stays — allows for some bump compliance and the room for wider tire options.
Externally machined 44mm straight head tubes — allows for different tapered forks to be used, along with Chris King Inset headsets or any other zero stack upper and external cup lower headsets.
Enve Forks - we build with the Road, All Road, Gravel, and Adventure standard and in route forks depending on the customer’s preference. Enve has been established as the benchmark of properly engineered, thoughtfully developed, and meticulously built cycling components.
Mechanical or electronic routing — your choice. Both options are routed internally for a very clean aesthetic and rattle free ride.
T-47 bottom bracket shell — this oversized option allows you to use a threaded bottom bracket for either 24mm or 30mm cranks. We've found this to be superior to any other threaded or press fit option. The oversized shell also allows for keeping electronic wiring internal. The shell also provides a larger surface area for welds.
Internally routed brake lines — our internal routing is also “tubed” meaning that you can push the hose through the frame without having to fish for it.
Flat mount or post mount disc mounts or standard caliper brakes.
All frames are hand built in Colorado.
Our team has over 30 years of engineering and fabrication experience with Titanium.
We build exclusively with US sourced, aerospace grade 3/2.5 Titanium tubing.
All head tubes, bottom bracket shells, and dropouts are machined in the USA.
All frames come with your choice of finish: brushed raw Ti with blasted or anodized graphics, or your choice of paint colors. Forks are painted to match and component paint matching is also available.
Custom options are available at no extra charge: geometry, additional bosses, fender/rack mounts.
All frames come with a lifetime guarantee against structural defects.
Complete bikes are available. We are not restricted by standard preset build kits, so all complete bikes are quoted as a la carte, bespoke builds. Please contact us for your personal quote.
How to get started on your Haley commission:
1.
The Factory Stock framesets can be ordered in either road or gravel geometries.
The Custom OS options can be configured into any type of frame - road, all road, gravel, hardtail, or anything in between.
Choose your tubeset - we offer three different tubesets you can choose to build your Haley.
- OS Straight Factory Stock Geometry - $3999 - this is our standard, oversized straight gauge tubeset, built with a stock road or gravel geometry. The finish is a raw Ti finish with your choice of colored anodized standard layout graphics. The frame comes with an Enve Road or Gravel fork.
- OS Straight Custom - $4999 - this is our standard, oversized straight gauge tubeset. It offers a fantastic trademark Titanium ride quality that is plenty stiff for pedaling efficiency and torsional rigidity, while Ti naturally smooths out the road.
- OS Butted Custom - $5499 - this is our butted, oversized tubeset. It’ll save you a small amount of weight, but more importantly it does a great job at amplifying the “liveliness” or “springiness” to the feel of the bike, especially when out of the saddle climbing or accelerating. The feel of the energy return is the bonus here. Most of the frames we build for our custom customers opt for this tubeset.
- OS Butted Plus Custom- $5999 - this is our butted and oversized plus tubeset. This is a great option for those riders who are looking for something just a bit stiffer without sacrificing comfort and ride feel. You may be a criterium racer, a sprinter, maybe a track rider, or just someone who prefers the utmost sfiffness and efficiency at the pedals.
Each Custom option frameset comes with an Enve fork, custom geometry, and your choice of paint color and/or finish (anodized or raw Ti).
2.
Complete or frameset - are you looking for just a frame and fork, or are you thinking about a complete bike?
If you’re looking for something complete, each bike is custom quoted as components can be chosen specifically as custom items for your custom commission. Let’s talk about what you’re thinking about and we’ll build a no obligation quote for you to check out and review.
3.
Let’s talk geometry - if you’re going to invest in a handmade Ti frame, let’s make sure it’s exactly what you want fit wise, gearing and clearance wise, and aesthetically. We can build you geometry CAD file based on fit data that you have, or with measurements off your current bike as long ae you’re comfortable on it. If you haven’t been fitted and would prefer to go that route, we’ll cover the cost of your initial fitting.
Or, you always choose our Factory stock geometry road or gravel frames.
4.
Good to go - once we build your CAD geometry file and we’ve reviewed it together, once you approve it is when the timer starts. We aim for completing your frame in approximately 16-18 weeks.
5.
Custom graphic design - we connect you with our designer at about the 8 week mark to start the graphic design process. This step makes sure that the custom geometry, custom spec’d Ti bike will now look exactly how you want it. Let’s make it personal. Let’s make it mean something to you. Let’s make sure your neighbor down the street doesn’t have the same thing.
6.
Almost there - final assembly and QC - once the frame is done with fabrication, it goes through two QC checks prior to the paint / finish step. After the paint / finish step, it goes through another check before final assembly or packaging.
7.
Delivery - all framesets are shipped via UPS Ground service. All complete bikes are shipped via special white glove couriers that will deliver your bike fully asssmbled and ready to go. No need to unpack it or install anything. It’s literally ready to ride.
Let’s get started on your personal Haley commission. We’ll try to make it as simple and fun as possible!

about us
Visiting family in London some 35 years ago, the only mode of transportation we had was either public transportation or the bicycle. Being as it was summertime, my uncle opted for bicycles to see the sites around the city. We rode everywhere. Through the city center, along the rivers, in and out of town; as a kid it felt like we rode a thousand miles. In reality it was far from a thousand miles, but it was the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
As a sport, a lifestyle, a career, and an avenue to step away from the everyday stressors, my love for cycling was forged that summer and has since become a predominant part of my life.
Haley was born in the summer of 2017. Our desire is to have a brand that represents the best of what we've been fortunate to experience in cycling: to be built in the USA; to be welded out of the best Titanium; to be artisan and unique to you, the customer; and most importantly, to be fun.
Haleys are primarily intended to provide everything from exhilaration to speed to zippiness, as well as stability, confidence, and comfort. But at the end of the day, the most important thing is to provide you, the rider, exactly what you want. Whatever it may be.
