Really enjoyed the process working with William, especially some of his standout suggestions like the curved top tube. It's exactly what I was after — a trail bike capable of railing singletrack and popping the odd jump, while still being comfortable enough for all-day or multi-day rides. The small details in the frame finish are gorgeous, and overall it's a beautifully crafted bike. Thanks William, I couldn't be happier with it.
I was after a mountain bike that was capable, adaptable and would last for years, and I'm really glad I chose Will and Auren Bikes. From the very start Will was so helpful — I gave him my most recent bike fit, even though it was from a road bike, and through consultation he built me something that fits perfectly. He kept me updated throughout, and… Read more
gave great advice on parts I needed but didn't know much about. I've already recommended Auren Bikes to friends who've noticed the bike out on the trails.
Having had my AUREN bike for 6 months now, I can honestly say it's the most comfortable, beautiful and amazing bike I've ever ridden. From start to finish it's been an absolute pleasure dealing with Will on the design, sizing and customisation, and he was always happy to answer any questions along the way. AUREN Bikes showed incredible attention… Read more
to detail at every stage of the build, with real effort and care going into the final product. I couldn't be happier with the outcome, and my entire experience with AUREN and Will has been fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone after a one-of-a-kind custom forever titanium bike!
"Will at Auren Bikes really listens to what you're after, taking the time to understand your riding style and preferences. His approach is passionate, knowledgeable and professional, and with an in-depth bike fit thrown in, he builds a bespoke bike that fits like a glove. A brilliant result and a genuinely enjoyable experience — highly recommended. Thanks Will."
"Big thanks to Will and Auren Bikes for getting me excited about spring bikepacking on my new rig. Every little detail of this custom build has come together brilliantly — if you want something done properly, give them a call."
Auren Bikes is the best custom frame builders I've bought from — and I've bought several. Will went out of his way to track down many parts for me, including sourcing hard to find front forks I was after. Simply awesome, and a highly recommended Aussie frame builder.
Happy to give Auren Bikes 5 stars for both the product and the service. I needed a new road bike and wanted something custom, having found in the past that off-the-shelf frame sizes just don't fit me right. My previous bike was also custom made, but had aged out. Will worked carefully with me to land on the bike I wanted, going out of his way to… Read more
offer different frame set-up options and track down parts to suit my needs. The frame is beautifully made and rides very smoothly, with a polished titanium finish that looks stunning. I decided to switch to disc brakes, Di2, more aero bars and tubeless tyres, and Will guided me through the process and parts selection. I also wanted my name on the frame, which he hadn't done before but pulled off really well. Highly recommend Auren Bikes to anyone considering a custom bike who wants the process to be enjoyable.
We ordered the Auren Belt Drive ebike and put 100km on it in the first week alone — it's fantastic: easy, fast and comfortable. Our commute is now a full 30 minutes faster round trip than driving! Thanks Will!
Every now and then a bike comes along that truly stands out, and Auren's Peregrine is exactly that. It's the most efficient bike I've ridden, including custom steel and high-end carbon in both recreational and competitive settings. It descends with real balance, tracks flawlessly, and is responsive on climbs too. It's clear Will and the Auren team… Read more
engineered and built this with real precision and intent, aiming to create a genuine connection between rider and bike. I haven't ridden many name-brand Ti bikes stateside, but I'd say this holds its own against the very best. The joy of pedalling this bike is profound. Will is intuitive, passionate and communicative — and the result is a magical bike that shouldn't be overlooked.
Will's passion and attention to detail really shine through. Looking forward to many more happy hours on my Kookaburra.
After visiting the Handmade Bicycle Show in Melbourne, I reached out to Will about a gravel-specific titanium frameset, keen to reuse parts from my existing CX bike. He took a look at my old bike, confirmed it wasn't a problem, then ran a bike fit so we could nail down the frame and etchings I wanted. The frame — affectionately named Piggy — was… Read more
ready ahead of schedule, and Will threw in a new chain and a few extras to get everything running smoothly. Three rides in, I'm loving it; it's a brilliant all-day gravel bike. Will's an absolute pleasure to deal with and I'd highly recommend him for anyone after a custom titanium frameset or complete build."
No regrets at all going with Will at Auren Bikes. I wanted the experience of building my own bike, so I ordered a versatile gravel-style frame. Will was incredibly helpful throughout the whole journey, patiently answering every question I threw at him. I ended up ordering quite a few components through him too, which made the build so much easier… Read more
since everything was set up to fit my needs perfectly. I learned a huge amount about bike building over those few months, and have a lovely bike to show for it.
These guys make solid bikes. I know, I've put mine through a lot and continue to do so and it just eats it up. Responsive and feel-good ride.

Such a personal and positive experience with Auren Bikes. Every single detail was considered, and the final custom build exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!
Excellent bespoke service — couldn't recommend it more highly. I have a custom titanium bike, my wife has an ebike and son has an ebike, all from Auren.
Really happy with my Auren titanium gravel bike! It feels so nimble and supple. I've taken it on fast gravel rides as well as extended bike packing trips and it's always been up for the job. Great experience with Will also, he answered all my questions and took me though the customisation process in a way that helped me understand the best bike for me individually.
I got a custom titanium road bike from Auren around 3 years ago when I decided it was time to upgrade from my rim brake carbon bike and I had lower back/glute pain that would come on almost every ride. Haven't looked back, my pain has completely gone away thanks to the custom fit and the bike just feels so much more stable and confidence… Read more
inspiring than my old one.
Highly recommend to anyone wanting to invest in a long term bike that is always a joy to ride.
It was such a super easy process and Auren Bikes were able to take the customised experience one step further by anodising my frame to a beautiful bronze colour - a true stand out.
