How many companies actually make their own products anymore? Well, we do. We believe our customers value the dedication, the work ethic, and the craftsmanship that can only come from an American company. We're an Oregon company, and we believe in employing the very best, most skillful workers who take pride in their work and execute their jobs with real passion. Our love of cycling and creating something tangible for people who really appreciate the difference is important to us, and we know it's important to you.
At Co-Motion Cycles, we’ve built our reputation on constructing cleanly designed and elegantly executed bicycles since 1988: Bicycles that serve a real purpose for cyclists who expect real performance without unnecessary hype. There are so many bicycles to choose from, how do you know Co-Motion is right for you?
We literally had to invent ourselves to find our place in the hearts and minds of the cyclists who have made our bicycles a part of their lives. From tandems to touring bikes, our approach to building bicycles draws from traditional elements, yet we’ve openly discarded anything that doesn’t serve the purpose of making a better bicycle. You’ve heard the terms, “size-specific geometry” and “size specific tube selection”? We had never heard anyone use these now-commonplace terms until we began identifying our own ideas this way in the early 1990’s. At that time, it was virtually unheard of for a framebuilder to depart from the standardized tubesets offered by Reynolds or Columbus. We knew that these pre-determined sets did not serve small or large riders well. Instead, we began to collect a wide palette of tubes that could be used for all applications and riders. Our reputation grew as it became clear that we considered each individual's needs.
As we’ve grown, we have been able to work with the world’s best tubing and component manufacturers on designs specifically for the bicycles we build here. Nowhere else will you find a greater degree of specialization in high-tech air-hardening steel tubing for tandems, tubing designed for S+S coupler integration, specially contoured chainstays, downtubes… literally every tube that your Co-Motion is made of. When new designs are called for, we fabricate what we need in our extensive machine shop, or work with some of the world’s top suppliers to make them a reality.
At Co-Motion Cycles, we’re constantly searching for ways to make better bicycles. Guided by our experience, by research and the voices of our customers, we’re thoroughly engaged in the excitement of creating the next great bike: Yours.
