Rivendell Bicycle Works • Ever since 1994

Useful, comfortable, fun, UNracing bikes

We make bikes for day riders and tourers, commuters and shoppers, trail riders and athletes, get-arounders and recreationalists, family riders and earth-savers.

We don’t make bikes for racers or weekend warriors, and we don’t use carbon, because it’s dangerous. We don’t make uncomfortable, short-lived, road bikes or mechanically overkilled mountain bikes. Our CrMo steel UNracing bikes are sleek, gorgeous, comfortable, efficient, safe, will last longer, and be safer every ride.

Rivendells are mechanical bikes. Pedal-powered.

We recognize that motorized bikes solve problems pedal bikes can't, but we seriously lack the brain-power to design or make them. So we stick to our true and only love—pedal bikes. When it's a pedal bike you want, we're your people.

Grant's Blahg

September 23, 2021

It's late September and I really should be back in school. I hope the last of the rambling random-type ones.

There's a Bob Dylan line that goes: "Today on the countryside, it was hotter than a crotch," It's been hotter than a crotch here, for sure, and holy Moses...we aren't...
