DENVER (BRAIN) — Two Denver brands, Domahidy Designs and Pactimo, are teaming up to offer race teams and other groups a program to get custom matching bikes and clothing.
"We're taking the custom kit program to the next level by allowing groups and teams to customize the bike to their organization's identity," said Steve Domahidy, the company's founder and president. "We did it for Groove Subaru and it was an enormous success, now we're expanding the program nationwide."
Once orders are finalized, teams and groups can submit their logo, graphics, and ideas to Domahidy Designs, along with the colors they would like the bike to be painted, and Domahidy Designs will customize the entire bike for them and return a graphics presentation for approval. In addition to the custom bike, each frame kit sold will come with Pactimo bibs and jersey to match.
"We think this will bring a new level of presentation to teams and groups that has never been achieved before," Domahidy said, "this is a win/win for everybody. We're giving organizations an extremely cool and unique product to ride and race, and at an aggressive discount from retail. In return, the groups and teams are out on the bikes helping spread the word about Domahidy Designs. We really believe this to be an amazing opportunity for all involved."
Prices will vary depending on quantities but can go as low as $950, which includes a frame, fork, headset, and the Pactimo race kit. This represents over a 50 percent discount from retail pricing.
"We are excited to partner with Domahidy Designs for this fantastic team offer," said Karl Heidgen, Pactimo's VP of custom sales, "Domahidy is known for paying attention to the small details that make a difference in ride quality and performance and to offer it with custom paint is an added bonus."
For the 2015 racing season, over half of the Groove Subaru Excel Sports Race Team took advantage of the pilot program and custom frames with Pactimo kits were delivered in March for the start of the racing season.
For 2016, Groove will expand the teams' commitment to Domahidy Designs. "We were the test subjects for this project, and have been thrilled with the results," said Alex Gillett, the co-owner of the Groove Subaru Excel Race Team. "Our team did awesome this year aboard Domahidy Designs Carbon Road bikes, and we look forward to furthering our relationship with this very cool start-up brand. Groove is committed to Domahidy Designs and we're working closely with them on development of future models as well. We couldn't be more pleased."
Minimum order quantities start at 10 units. Orders will require a 50 percent deposit upon final order, and all orders are due by Nov. 15 in order to make the 2016 racing season. Graphics will be finalized no later than Dec. 15.
