All our bikes are built to order in our Sheffield workshop. It's part of what makes Airdrop a little bit different and it's one of the things that makes our bikes what they are. We've put a whole load of effort into designing and developing every little detail on the frame, so when we build a bike we put in that same level of care and attention to detail.
Hopefully that comes across in the video.
Yes it's a Dream Build in many ways but the bike we built is actually one of our 'Stock Builds' - an Edit v3 Works. You can buy a bike just like this one here. Or if you'd like to build up your own we sell the Edit v3 frame with a selection of shocks.

Andy is leaving Airdrop Bikes for bigger and better (well, bigger anyway) things. We're going to go back to being a three-man brand, but we're also stoked for Andy.

Rockshox recently released the Pike DJ to the new Electric Red colour. We like to make sure that we keep our bikes up to date, so we took the opportunity to give the Fade Core a bit of a refresh.
