It All Starts with the Frame—the essential foundation that drives performance, optimization, and ultimate rider experience.
HOW IT WORKS: The INTENSE frame is the essential element—the foundation for creating something truly unique and expressive. Like the building blocks of a perfect formula, our new Frame First platform empowers riders to build a fully customized bike without the added cost typically associated with custom builds. By streamlining our process and optimizing pricing, we’ve made it possible to create a bike tailored to your preferences while maintaining the same value as a pre-configured build.
