Welcome to the BICYCLE SPECIALTIES/HOULE HANDBUILT BICYCLES web site. My name is Matt Houle (pronounced: Hool), I run the place. If you are looking for a top of the line, custom designed, handbuilt bicycle, made from some of the finest steel tubing available, by someone with the experience and willingness to turn your bicycle dreams into reality, then you have come to the right place.
One thing that you will notice, as you peruse this web site, is that, while I am certainly not shy about my abilities, I haven’t included much in the way of over indulging self-promotion, or hype. I offer a high quality product with excellent customer service, but I’ve never liked being the target of the “hard sell”, so you won’t find me trying much of that here.
Another thing that you won’t find here, is me trying to push all the latest, greatest, gadgets that the magazines tell you that you need. The components that I offer are all from high quality manufacturers that have withstood the test of time.
So, if you want hype, slick marketing, over inflated egos, all the latest techno junk, or bad service, keep surfing.
