our growth in too many ways to count, and California’s Doug White of White Industries is a shining
example of that adventurous spirit.
White’s travels with his Bike Friday inspired
his Quick Draw crankset, which allows for quick release of the pedal when folding or packing. White
Industries also provides the titanium bottom bracket as well as front and rear hubs.
The headset is crafted by Portland’s renowned
Chris King — true royalty of American craftsmen.
California’s Paul’s Components made both our Vbrakes and levers, plus a set of perches for mounting thumbshifters on the bars.
A Special Touch
The seatpost is made by L.H. Thomson, in Georgia. The Selle Anatomic saddle and leather bar tape
are produced in Wisconsin. The Ironweed panniers
are handmade in Iowa. The wooden fenders are
crafted by Creative Openings in Washington.
The drivetrain is from SRAM and the quick releases are from Salsa Cycles — both American based
companies.
Another tribute to our Founders’ roots are the
classic Bike Friday H-bars, designed by Co-Founder
Alan Scholz and welded by Co-Founder Hanz Scholz
at his shop in Washington.
The result? A true American classic touring bike
that will perform to match its look. We will build
just 20 of these limited edition Anniversary bikes.

Made in America means a lot of things to a lot of
people. For 33 dedicated Bike Friday employees in
Eugene, Oregon it means pride in building a better
tomorrow by offering individual solutions for transportation and health.
Hanz and Alan Scholz committed to be a Made in
USA company 20 years ago, and have stayed true to
that vow through challenging economic times.
To celebrate building every one of our more than
30,000 Bike Fridays in Oregon, our designers created the ultimate touring bike, our 20th Anniversary
New World Tourist USA.
We Did It Our Way
This custom touring bike honors the trailblazers
who create quality products and homegrown jobs.
It begins with US-milled 4130 cro-moly steel tubing for the return of the diamond frame — a tribute
to the original Bike Friday design. Our custom laser
cut pieces are produced by Magic Metal in Washington. The frame’s unique Sparkle Green comes from
Prismatic Powders of Oregon.

“I was literally in the middle of

Ruthy Kanagy recalls, “with my Bike
Friday parked out front of a restaurant on Rishiri Island. I suddenly
heard someone shout, ‘BIKE FRIDAY!
BIKE FRIDAY!’”
Kanagy, another Bike Friday owner who came to work here, experi-
enced an encounter all too familiar
to owners. It’s the spirit that created the Bike Friday Community,
which took on a life of its own.
“We never imagined creating a
community,” Alan Scholz says. “But
that’s just what Bike Friday owners
did. They created an inclusive community of their own, that welcomes
in anyone, anywhere in the world.”
“I’m crazy about this bike. I
love the fact that a middle-aged gasser
like me can do 3,000-foot climbs on it. I
love that I can do 45 mph descents and
still feel in control. I love how quickly
it accelerates, and how nimble it is in

see a business of this size thriving and
contributing to the local community.”

At the end of the day I ride
the bicycle home. It’s been
working perfectly for several
years, but lately the train is getting crowded with bikes.
I’m happy to see more people riding but there are only six

“We designed a bike you would
want to ride more than a mile,”
Hanz said. “We combined the quickest fold with the best ride.”
The tikit folds in less than 5 seconds, and rolls easily onto a train or
can be carried onto a bus.
What sets the tikit apart? When
you fold and unfold, you don’t need
to readjust your saddle or bar height.

Its versatility and durability make
it an extremely popular choice as

to its deftness for expedition touring and trail riding.
The Llama is our strong workhorse that offers a heavy rider upgrade to accommodate cyclists up
to 280 pounds.
A bike for everybody.
“The Llama is becoming my
favorite bike. It is certainly my
most versatile bike. It is not specialized for any one type of riding, but
can go just about anywhere a bike
can go and can handle a variety of
conditions well. As a city-bike, I’ve

The Pocket Llama is more than
your typical mountain bike.
The Llama began as a Bike Friday
designed to tackle expedition touring and off-road excursions.
With a higher bottom bracket
for better clearance, the ability
to take wide tires and a frame designed for heavy loads, the Llama
became Bike Friday’s Transformer.

TANDEM
“There is great utility in our tandems,” Alan Scholz says. “But more
than anything, they are built to be legacy tandems. They are built to last
and to be handed down from generation to generation.”
Alan designed the Bike Friday Family Tandem for his youngest daughter,
Sarah. He quickly learned the magic of a tandem.
“Sarah was only four years old and we had it under the tree for Christmas,” Alan remembers, noting the stoker seat was set for a child -- one

While Bike Friday has

in the company’s DNA.

Your Way
This is How We Roll
Budget Matters
Unless you have a handful of Tour de France
victories under your belt or have invented some wonderful dohickey no one can live without, you always
have an eye on the bottom line.
We understand that. Your budget is important,
and we strive to meet your needs.
Customizing doesn’t just mean spending more
money. With each of our models, a Full Custom version can be designed to meet your budget.
Your price will depend on the components you
want to complete your package. Give us a budget.
We’ll meet it.

When Co-Founder Alan Scholz
put together a Super Pro,
it went something like this:

Did you ever dream about owning
a bicycle factory? While away the
hours fantasizing about how you
would build your bike, from the
ground up, if given the chance?
That’s what Bike Friday is. It’s
your factory. Your personal cycling
dream come true.
From the basic 8-speed New
World Tourist that can be Custom
built beginning around $1,200, to
the belt drive Select tikit around
$2,000 and all the way to the sky’sthe-limit Super Pro Red topping out
at more than $8,000, we can build
the bike of your dreams.
The best part: These are the kind
of projects our Bike Consultants and
Dealers live for!
They love listening to your aspirations, and then working with you
to put together your favorite components with the right Bike Friday

The point is this: Figuring out
exactly what you need to make your

task. It’s not something you can do by
just visiting our website a couple or
