GBDIY carbon - SOLID “I have put a few hundred miles on this frame and it is solid. I built up this bike to be my gravel/road bike to ride when the trails are wet. The build came to a little under $3k and weighs in at 22.8 lbs with the bottle cages, pedals and SQlab innerbarends. I have taken this on several 25-50 mile road/gravel rides, as well as a few 10-20 mile single track rides. I would not hesitate to buy another frame from this company.”

AUDON’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!

GBGreat service and Response but unreliable delivery I purchased a carbon mountain bike frame and a 29" mountain bike carbon wheelset. The frame arrived on time. The wheels were another story. They never arrived. I was forced to call the credit card company and reverse the charge. I was given many excuses and justifications. At the end of the day, they were over a month late and there was not a tracking number to verify they exist. The company responded saying they were shipped to the wrong customer. With all the mistakes I would not choose to work with this company again. They do not seem to have established reliable partners in china where the product is coming from. I would not recommend them to a friend. I am still searching for wheels with almost $4k in parts ready to ride. Buyer beware.

CODIY makes solid products that stand the… DIY makes solid products that stand the test of time... I've put the "stache" frame, carbon wheels, and the other components through a ton of abuse (big drops, gaps with more than a few cases) and it remains a solid, light and fun platform. My go-to rig.

GBReview 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.
