Hi, That sounds very interesting. This would be my first prototype for this:: Create a custom product by inheriting product, add a manytomany field to product. I would also add an automatic discount for this product, so the price drops since they buy a lot of parts. Create a custom view to handle the product customization. This is where you would display the different parts and they could pick which one to add to their product. Have a link like "Build your own Bike". It sounds like fun, and I don''t think it would that complicated to implement it. And you will be Much happier with satchmo:) I have done my fair share of coding/theming with osCommerce.
