What We Like To Carry In The Shop

Welcome to Wheelgirl, established April 2005.
We are a small "boutique" bike shop that specializes in designing and assembling bicycles for those cyclists who have specific ideas and needs when it comes to their favorite mode of transportation.



Of course, we also are happy to tune, service, or repair your ride on your schedule.



  • Lynskey Performance Design for custom titanium road, track, and mountain frame. They founded and sold Litespeed. Titanium frames do not rust or fatigue and are lifetime guaranteed. (Check out the photo album to see some nice Lynskey rides)


  • Independent Fabrication for custom road framesets. IF custom steel framesets are guaranteed for five years, and everyone raves about the ride quality.


  • Handbuilt and rebuilt road, track, mountain wheelsets featuring Phil Wood, Paul, Chris King, Shimano, Campagnolo hubs and Mavic, Velocity, WTB, DTSwiss rims with Sapim and DTSwiss spokes. We have a Phil Wood spoke machine and can cut spokes to any size you need for a build.
