About the workshop
Northwind Cycle Works is an independent bicycle workshop in Sheridan, Wyoming. We build custom steel frames from scratch and service the everyday bikes our neighbours depend on — the ones that carry people to work, up into the hills, and out for a ride on a clear morning.
We chose steel and hand-building because we believe a bicycle should be personal and built to last. Whether you're commissioning a frame made to your exact measurements or just want your commuter running smoothly again, you'll get the same patient, careful work and the same straight talk.
No franchise, no rush, no jargon — just a workshop that treats every bike, and every rider, with respect.
How it works
Call or email us with what you ride and what you need — a service, a repair, a fit, or a custom frame. We’ll book you a slot on the stand.
We look over your bike or discuss your build, then give you an honest assessment and a clear quote before any work begins.
Your bike is worked on by hand in the workshop — measured, adjusted, built and checked with care at every stage.
You collect a bike that’s dialled in and ready, and we walk you through exactly what was done and how to keep it running.
The things riders most often want to know before booking the workshop.
Yes. Custom frame building is at the heart of the workshop. We build in steel for its ride quality, durability, and repairability, sizing and shaping each frame around how and where you ride rather than a stock geometry chart.
Absolutely. Full services, repairs, wheel building, and fittings are for every rider in the area, whatever badge is on the down tube. Bring in your everyday commuter, your gravel bike, or a frame we built for you.
It depends on the condition of the bike and the parts we need, but most full services are turned around within a few working days. We will always talk through what a bike needs and confirm the work before we start.
A fitting works through your contact points and position on the bike so you can ride longer and more comfortably. We adjust the bike to your body rather than asking your body to adapt to the bike.
Yes. Wheel building is a craft we take seriously, lacing and tensioning by hand for wheels that stay true and roll well under real-world miles. We can build to match how you ride and the terrain around Sheridan.
The quickest way is to call or email us with a bit about your bike and what you need. We will find a slot in the workshop and let you know what to expect before you drop it off.
Call or email with a few details about your bike and what you need. We'll find you a slot and talk through the work before anything begins.
Whether it's a full service, a fresh set of wheels, or a frame built just for you, the next step is a quick conversation.
