Boedie was my grandfather’s nickname. As a WWII fighter pilot, he taught me the values to what it takes to fly; reliablily and attention to detail. At Boedie Cycles, we practice just that. Our custom steel bikes are made to last and every little detail is as important to us as it is to you. Boedie Cycles is not just a brand name, it’s a commitment to heritage and quality.
I was first introduced to cycling around 1989. I was a skinny high school freshman who pestered the local bike shop (Bill Curry’s Cycling and Fitness) until they agreed to hire me. I started racing as a Junior shortly thereafter. In high school drafting class, the teacher agreed to let me draft bike frames and bike components. Well that was almost 20 years ago. All along, I have always known that I wanted to build bike frames. After working in numerous bike shops through out the country, I decided to take the plunge, enrolling in a United Bicycle Institute frame building course. I have spent the last four years pursuing my passion of building, honing and perfecting my skills as a frame builder. I enjoy working one-on-one with customers, establishing their goals and designing the bike of their dreams. I help them fulfill their dream of owning a custom, handmade steel bicycle. My shop is located in Whitefish, MT. Whitefish is unique because it offers a large cycling community in a smaller town feel. The roads and trails in northwest Montana are unmatched in quality and beauty. I suggest if you don’t live in the area to come by for a visit. Don’t forget to bring your bike and stop by Boedie Cycles.
Hey Chris,
AWESOME work!!. Looks like you have found your calling. You need to name one of your frames “Ball-Peen Hammer”. That one goes back a ways.
Would love to come out one day and check out your shop.
