Our Frame Finder Service

Frame Finder · Edinburgh

Buy the right bike, first time.

Frame Finder goes beyond size. We look at your fit, how you ride and what you want the bike to do, then recommend which bikes are worth looking at, as well as the size.

£350

Both fits, one price

Any bike

Its geometry checked against your position

Set-up included

Your new bike dialled in at part two

More than a frame size

The wrong frame size or set-up can turn a dream bike into an expensive mistake. So we start with you: your position, how you ride, where, and what you want the next bike to do better than the last one.

We know a lot of bikes and brands. Bring a shortlist and we'll check it against your position on the fit bike, or come with nothing and we'll tell you what to look at. Dreaming of something fully bespoke? We'll guide you from first fit to finished build.

Buy with confidence

Know the bike and the size are right before you order.

Compare like for like

Check your shortlist against one fitted position, not a guess on a shop floor.

Go fully custom

Your numbers can become a frame drawing, from first fit to finished build.

Never buy twice

Avoid an expensive frame swap down the line.

How Frame Finder works

Two fits for one price: part one before you buy, part two when your bike arrives.

Part one

Find your frame

STEP 1

Talk it through

What you ride now, where, how far, and your goals for the new bike. Bring your shortlist if you have one.

STEP 2

Find your position

Your fitter locks in your ideal riding position on our Purely Custom fit bike, with saddle pressure mapping as a comfort check.

STEP 3

Compare the options

The fit bike is set to each frame's size and geometry, so we can check how each bike compares with your position before you buy.

STEP 4

Your recommendation

Which bike to look at, which size, and every contact point, in a personalised fit report to take away.

Part two

The full fit when your bike arrives

Part two is included in the price. We email you a link to book it. We set the new bike up to the position you found in part one, and ensure everything is dialled in properly.

What it costs

One price for both fits. The cost comes partially off the bike price if you buy through us.

Where Frame Finder leads

Your recommendation points to one of three ways to buy your next bike from us. Every one starts here.

Made for you

Bespoke

Your fit numbers become the frame drawing. Handmade titanium and steel from Enigma Signature.

Built for you

Custom Build

A frame from Enigma, Ridley, BMC, and more, in the size your fit points to, with every part chosen from your measurements.

Chosen with you

Complete Bike

The maker's build, ordered in and set up to your fit, so the one you ride home is the one that fits.

Already know your bike?

If you've picked your frame, a Bike Fit sets up the bike you own, or a Pre-Purchase Fit gives you your numbers and a report before you order.

Your fitters

Frame Finder runs with Dougie or Sam, who both use the same protocol and equipment.

Common questions

Do I need a bike in mind?

No. Bring a shortlist and we'll check it against your position on the fit bike, or come with nothing and we'll tell you what to look at.

What do I need to bring?

Your shoes and the kit you actually ride in, and your shortlist if you have one. We use our fit bike, so you don't need a bike of your own.

What happens after part one?

You leave with a recommendation and a personalised fit report. When your bike arrives, part two is the full fit, and it's included. We email you a link to book it.

What if I need to cancel?

Life happens, and we understand. You can rebook your fit as long as you give us notice.

Start with the fit.

Book Frame Finder, or send us a message and we'll help you decide.
