Leadville 100 MTB bike I ordered this frame to build a budget carbon bike for the Leadville 100 MTB race. I used a deore XT group set, used Niner carbon bars and seat post, and a Boyd 27.5 wheelset to build a 23 lbs climbing machine. Very pleased with the fit, finish, and value. Earned the LT 100 belt buckle. FYI, I jokingly named the bike SLOW using old Moots stickers but it is anything but that!

Delivery took 4 months longer! Delivery took almost 4 months longer than expected. (Originally scheduled for 28 Dec 2022, actually delivered 20 April 2022). I purchased a painted frame but got an unpainted one and was not refunded the difference. The bike was supposed to include a headset but one was not included in the packaging. I am giving 2 stars because the frame is very light and looks good.

Great deal on some great wheels! Great deal on some great wheels!! Very well built. No reason to pay more. Great options for different hubs, colors, spokes, and nipples. Ty did a great job with communication. Emailed me back very quickly when I reached out with questions.

DON’T BUY FROM THIS COMPANY Paid for express postage and it still took a month for the carbon frame to arrive. I ordered a hardtail and noticed a small crack in the seat tube/top tube which I documented and sent to “Ty” (the CEO), who assured me it was just a fault in the paint work. After 4 hours of labour and lots of money spent on parts I took the new bike for a ride, during the ride I could hear several Pops coming from the rear of the frame. When I got home and had a look the crack had tripled in length there were 4 new cracks around the major one. I have asked for a refund but “Ty” tells l me the cracks are all superficial and should not effect the performance of the bike and offered me a repair kit. Absolute crap. I have a new bike lined up to buy and need my money back before I can afford it but “Ty” is now taking days to reply to emails. I will pursue PayPal for a refund. DON’T BUY THESE BIKES!

Review after almost 3 years I bought the PT29 frame from DIY Carbon Bikes in Feb of 2021. It's been almost 3 years and 2500+ miles, and I don't have anything bad to say about it. Yeah it's a little slower than FS through very rocky areas and slower than a cyclocross bike on flat single track, but it can literally go everywhere. I'm now a big fan of plus size tires, and the slack geometry has definitely helped keep my confidence in descents. It has survived some pretty good wrecks and the frame has held up great. Also bought carbon wheels at same time and they've been solid as well. I was skeptical of how long this bike would hold up, but it still rolling great after all this time. I haven't built up a bike since this one, but I would be open to purchasing from this company again.
