Bike Part RFQs for Shops That Mill Aluminum

What an RFQ preview looks like
Enough to judge fit and effort. The buyer's name, company and files are released only after you take the lead.

Questions shops ask
Is one RFQ sold to many shops?
No. Each RFQ goes to 3 shops at most, and only to shops whose machines, materials and finishing fit the part.
How much does a lead cost?
The price is on every preview, before you decide. It depends on part complexity and order size. You only pay for the leads you choose.
What if a lead is not what the preview described?
Tell us and we review it. If the buyer contact does not work or the part differs clearly from the preview, we credit the lead.
Do I need in-house anodizing?
No, but you need a finisher you can commit to. Bike buyers ask for a color and a finish quality, so a quote that stops at the machined part is rarely enough to win the order.
