This question has several answers, so we will dig into the details. The answer will be different depending on the type of bike you are ordering. The Recon, Sortie, and Blip Skibikes are production skibikes made in bulk batches. We try to have these in stock during the skibike season. We keep the frames in

There is nothing worse than getting a skibike only to find out that the mountain you want to ride at does not allow them.  Don’t assume that a particular mountain is skibike friendly just because you saw a bike there.  A lot of mountains are NOT skibike friendly, but may allow bikes to people with

YES!  There are several advantages to getting a purpose-built (factory) skibike over a DIY converted (conversion) bike.  Without going in to a lot of detail, here are the highlights: The geometry on a factory skibike is going to be a lot different than that of a conversion.  Mountain bikes are designed to be ridden both
