Cool article -- and great bikes! Great to have a local manufacturer and killer deals. I love mine!

Mike

It's good to see that Fezzari is finally getting the recognition they deserve. I was one of their first customers and have 3 of their bikes sitting in my garage right now. I've been more than happy with the bikes and company!

This is AMAZING!

I am 6'8" tall and weight around 370lbs. I have been looking and preying (the double meaning of the spelling is intentional) for a place like this for over 20 years!! Now, in easy travel distance, I find what appears (I hope, I hope, I hope) is a place that can produce a bike that will actually fit ME!!

What joy! What rapture! (and I'm not being entirely hyperbolic)

Chris is a great asset to the community, along with great deals he has also supported Utah Law Enforcement with demo bikes for the Police Unity Tour and local parades and events. This is a great brand, a great deal, and should be considered over every other bike out there. THANKS CHRIS

I know where I'll be purchasing my next bicycle.

Buy Local

Keep the money in Utah. Go Chris.

I have a road and a mountain Fezzari in my garage. They are both great. Chris offers an outstanding product and genuine service at a below competative price. A true steal with incredible performance. I plan on adding more Fezzari's to my collection. Keep up the great work Chris.

Fezzari makes a great bike for any budget and ability. Entry Road and Mountain to Professional competition. I have a road and a mountain bike in my garage, and planning adding more. Keep up the great work Chris. Great quality and service at a below competitive price.

I am a new cyclist this year. I have a Fezzari Catania (road bike). I am having the time of my life riding around Utah. I was thrilled to read this article about Fezzari Bikes. Everyone in the company has been so helpful and great to work with. I love my bike. And I love the feeling after a good, long ride. I wish Fezzari Bikes the best. Congratulations Chris, on an outstanding company and product.

Okay..

He buys the parts offshore and then assembles them here to fir the rider. What a great concept. Now, why do we not have any manufacturer here that can make the parts for him se we can keep all the money in Utah?

parts?

I'm looking at the bikes... It appears to me that the only part of the bike that is actually Fezzari is the frame?

Truvativ Blaze Crankset
Shimano XT Rear Derailleur
RockShox Tora Fork
RockShox Ario 2.2 Rear Shock
Avid Juicy 3 Brakes

This is how all the major bike manufactures work.

I ride a Fezzari Catania up the Alpine Loop, Suncrest, and other popular routes maybe once a week and I always chuckle as I see other dudes riding their Treks, Cannondales, ($2000 and sometimes $3000 bikes) along the road with me. The funny thing is if you compare the components on my $950 Catania with what they have on their overpriced bikes, in most cases we're riding nearly the same bike, but I'm biking all the way to the bank with a smile, knowing I didn't have to pay big corporate advertising dollars to get my sweet set-up. Fezzari is churning out a great product at a great price.

I introduced a few of my friends to Fezzari and so far three of us have purchased. Two Cascade Peaks and one Nebo. We love our Fezzari's and would recommend them to anyone. Great quality, price and fantastic service. I try to ride at least two or three times a week and do a mix of everything from tight technical to roaring downhill and my Cascade Peak answers the call. Check em' out, you'll be glad you did.

I just bought an Alta Peak today online. After reading this article and doing some research on my own, I couldn't find a similar bike anywhere for under $2,500. I paid $1,200 for mine. Looking forward to getting it--thanks for the article.

Adrian

I ordered an Alta Peak Monday night and now I am waiting for it to be delivered. I have a 2000 Mongoose FS bike that I mostly used on pavement, when it was time to play with it in the dirt it protested so I decided it was time for a new bike. I will report back with my views on their customer service and the bike once I receive it.

Aaron

To follow up on my purchase, I have been pretty happy so far with the bike. It was completed on schedule and it is very attractive. I picked the bike up on person. The owner, Chris and his wife were very friendly. Chris walked me through how they set up the bike to fit my dimensions. He told me to ride it for a while and he would make any adjustments I wanted to get a perfect fit. The customer service really is first class. I'm very happy with the way it rides. It's not the best bike for downhills, but all around, it's very well built and I know that Fezzari will back up their products.
