Whether you want a custom steel frame built for you from scratch, a precision fit, or just honest advice from a bike super-nerd, Austin at Monsoon Cycles has you covered.
With over 20 years of experience, Austin offers frame building, precision fits, and fully custom bicycles, each one built by hand, one at a time.
As a Master Bicycle Mechanic and certified Yoga instructor based in Colorado Springs, Austin brings a mindful, movement-based approach to every build, helping people feel more connected, capable, and free through cycling.
Austin was born into a family of bike racers and grew up in his local bike shop in Wichita Falls, Texas, where his lifelong connection to cycling began.
He has competed in countless bike races, triathlons, and marathons, but his true passion has always been the craft of repairing and fitting bicycles and the joy of movement itself.
After college and several years managing his hometown bike shop, Austin moved to NYC in 2018 to work in Tech Operations for a research startup that developed an early human powered version of ChatGPT. When that venture concluded, he returned to his roots, helping people find focus, freedom, and inner balance through cycling.
