Bicycle Assembly

We Set Every Bike Up the Right Way. At Flat Tire Co., bikes aren’t finished when they’re assembled — they’re finished when they’re properly set up. Assembly makes a bike safe. Setup makes a bike ride right.

ASSEMBLY $100

This option is ideal if you simply need the bike built safely.
