The Alice Edition
We have been getting a lot of questions lately: what exactly is the Alice Edition Sweetpea?
In short, it is a bike that is going to be up for auction this Saturday at the BTA’s Alice awards auction. But while this bike is very special, it doesn’t actually exist yet. Because it is waiting for you.
While the wait for a custom bike can be long, even excruciating, this special Sweetpea is different. This bike has been patient. Even though it is not yet built, it has been waiting in line for a year. Waiting, so you don’t have to.
This fully custom bike is brought to you by a collaboration of some of best of Portland’s finest. The winner of the bike will start with a size cycle fitting with Michael Sylvester of Bicycle Fitting Services. Then Natalie will turn your unique design into a fully custom frame and fork. Chris King Precision Components will be providing the wheels, headset and bottom bracket, and the rest of the build will be graciously donated by River City Bicycles.
A complete bike, brought to you almost entirely from Portland, that has been waiting for you for a year.
There is no jumping the line for a Sweetpea (we even wait for our own personal bikes), but in this case the wait is almost over.
