Finish Options

We love the look of raw titanium, and our feeling has always been that best looking and most timeless finishes highlight the beauty of the metal itself. By mixing raw finishes like brushed, bead blasted, polished, and anodized titanium, we can stay true to that philosophy while creating an endless array of unique and personal designs. Our stock finishes include “Firefly” on both sides of the down tube, our logo behind the seat tube, “Boston” graphic at the base of the down tube, and our stainless steel or titanium head badge. Use the configurator below, selecting a base finish first and then different logo treatments and add-ons, to visualize a great variety of our custom finish options.

  • blasted finish
    Bead Blasted Titanium: Our stock finish. The slightly textured and matte surface is super durable and provides a perfect backdrop for graphics, from subtle brushed titanium logos to vivid anodized colors. Bead blasted titanium also allows us to create extremely crisp lines and fine details in custom graphics.
  • brushed finish
    Brushed Titanium (+$300): This is the classic titanium finish, and we take it to another level with two days of meticulous hand-finish work for an extraordinarily consistent shine. Brushed titanium is also very durable and can even be touched up with Scotch Brite if it ever does get scratched or scuffed.

Ti-Carbon Finishes

Our Ti-Carbon frames come with brushed or bead blasted titanium lugs and raw carbon tubing. Firefly logos are laser cut into the lugs, and down tube logos are applied with matte black vinyl and titanium “I”s that can be left raw or anodized in the color of your choice. This simple finish highlights the beautiful combination of raw titanium and carbon, but, of course, we can also work with you to develop fully custom graphics or custom paint to truly set your bike apart. The examples below show some of what's possible through our custom finish process.

Testimonial // FF1416
The biggest thing I noticed was: it fits and feels so perfectly for me. This was the most nerve wracking part of buying a bike I couldn’t test ride. But everything came out so perfect. I didn’t even know this was possible. Somehow the bike feels very planted – yet still so responsive / nimble. the wind gusts didn’t budge me at all – but when I wanted to turn, it was instant.
It gets up to speed from a traffic stop so fast and easy
Road chatter is big time reduced. like I can feel bumps but they aren’t jarring.
Everything is just beyond perfect. my reach for the drops is so comfy. Even things like getting my water bottle are comfy.
Anyway, it’s an honor to have one of your masterpieces. I beyond love it and it’ll be ridden a ton.
See the build
