3D Bike Configurator

A 3D bike configurator customers can build part by part

Frame size and colour, groupset, wheels, finishing kit — chosen in real time, rendered photorealistically, and priced as the build comes together.

No credit card required

What riders can configure

Frame size and geometry

The size options you build, presented clearly so the rider picks the right one before ordering.

Frame colour and finish

Paint colours, fades and matt or gloss finishes rendered on the actual frame geometry.

Groupset and drivetrain

Component tiers offered as options, with the price difference visible at the moment of choice.

Wheels and tyres

Wheelset and tyre choices swapped on the model rather than listed in a specification table.

Finishing kit

Bars, stem, saddle and grips selected individually, the way a rider actually specifies a build.

Build price in real time

Every upgrade moves the total, so the customer manages their own budget as they build.

Custom builds without the spreadsheet

Custom bike sales usually run through a spreadsheet and a series of emails: the customer picks a frame, asks about a groupset, waits for a price, changes their mind. A configurator turns that into a self-service build. The rider sees the bike change as they specify it and knows what each upgrade costs, so the enquiry that reaches you is a finished build rather than an opening question.

Rules that keep a build buildable

Component compatibility is the hard part of selling bikes online. A groupset that will not fit a frame, a wheelset that does not match the axle standard, a tyre that exceeds clearance — each one is a support ticket or a cancelled order. Conditional logic encodes those constraints once, so incompatible parts are hidden or disabled as soon as an earlier choice rules them out.

Start with AI, then check the logic

Setting up a bike configurator means building every option, every rule that links them, and every price that depends on them. Simplio3D can generate a working configurator from a product description, which gives you a structure to refine rather than a blank project. Its AI assistant can then audit what you have built — reviewing option coverage and conditional logic instead of leaving you to click through every combination. If you run a large catalogue, the MCP server lets an assistant connect with a scoped token to evaluate logic and calculate prices directly, proposing changes before anything is applied.

How to build a 3D bike configurator

From a model of the frame and components to a live build tool.

  1. Upload your bike model

    Import the bike with frame, wheels, drivetrain, bars, saddle and other components as separate parts so each can be swapped independently.

  2. Create materials

    Build the frame finishes as PBR materials: metallic paints, fades, matt and gloss clearcoats, plus the anodised and polished finishes used on components.

  3. Add the options customers choose from

    Encode component compatibility once — axle standards, tyre clearance, groupset and frame combinations — so a rider cannot build a bike that will not assemble.

  4. Set rules and pricing

    Price the frameset as the base and each component tier as an upgrade, so the running total reflects the exact build the rider has specified.

  5. Publish to your store

    Publish and embed it on your custom build page, and use the same link on a tablet at the counter during a fitting.

Other sports equipment

Team kit, protective gear and equipment personalisation use the same colour, logo and pricing tools.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Conditional logic ties component options to earlier choices, so parts that do not fit the selected frame or standard are hidden or disabled.
