I was at a cookout this past weekend, watching my kiddos play with a pack of kids, when out of nowhere I hear someone say, “I am pretty sure that there are no more bicycles made in the United States”. My ears perked up. As you know, I have a special talent for finding “Made in USA”.
I turn around and behind me is my hubby and a new friend in deep discussion about mountain bikes and road bikes. They each brought up a couple of company names, and agreed that those companies had moved overseas or no longer existed (they were correct). They could not think of any American bicycle makers. Of course, I was suddenly obsessed and when I got home I began my search for bicycles made in the USA. Here is what I found.
**Thanks for all of the American made tips in the comment section! We update this list at least once a year, so keep the suggestions coming!
This made in USA bicycle list is mentioned in the Industry Week article, Bike Production Shifts Gear and Rolls Back to the US!

Thanks for the list — my son leaves for college next year and he’ll definitely need a bike to get around campus!
Very cool! I’ve been looking for my kids for quite some time, and this list definitely helps!
Trek makes its high-end bikes and all bikes for its racing teams in Wisconsin. It’s less expensive bikes are built elsewhere.
Unfortunately the majority of Trek bikes now carry a big “Made in China” sticker slapped across the head tube.
I had a Trek bike, however, since the owners are left wing, I sold it. I don’t want to know what a company is politically, but if the owners are going to alienate 50% of their customers, they’ll be hurt…
Dang I wish I knew you because I would have been proud to have it. I own three mostly made in the USA treks and will never part with them. By the way 50% alienation sounds a bit like a political pipe dream.
Good grief. Not supporting a manufacturer of some American made products because of political affiliation? You are truly pathetic.
Trek is all in Asia now, even their “Émonda”. By the way, one of the geniuses at Trek decided on a French name and somehow came up with “Émonda”. Immonde IS French and means unclean or foul. The verb émonder in French means “to prune”, such as a fruit tree. Trek’s explanation was that the “Émonda” was light in weight.
Right… Make ‘Merica great again!
I support Americans regardless of how they lean. Americans are Americans.
It is an existential threat to the USA and its citizens to not have the majority of its essential manufacturing in the USA.
The vast majority of Trek/Bontrager branded goods (hard and soft) are mfd outside of U.S. and then imported back to be margined up hugely (the outrageous sticker prices create the margins they need to run their bloated altruistic Waterloonatic operations and political activism). It’s very difficult to know for sure due to the proprietary nature of things, plus the marketing b.s. companies like Trek spew, but I believe it is safe to conclude that only the highest end carbon frames and highest end carbon wheel rims are made in U.S. by Trek in Waterloo, WI. Thus, it’s perfectly accurate to state that none of Treks complete bikes are 100% made in USA. And most of their bikes are 100% made outside of USA. Remember a bike is an assembled compilation of frame, drivetrain components (cog sets, chain rings, chain, shifters, cables, housing, derailluers (mechanical and electronic), rims, spokes, hubs (wheelsets), tires and tubes, seats and posts, handlebars, forks, stem, and accessories. This is not to say their products are inferior, I still ride two Trek bikes and my spouse rides a Trek mtb as well. I used to be a much bigger fan, but due to several unnerving encounters with key Trek management staff and learning a great deal about the company’s political activism I have simply moved on. Far too many other great options out there from which to choose, and generally speaking Trek is way over-priced. Buying US made only isn’t my primary concern as in this day and age it is literally impossible to purchase a 100% U.S. made bicycle that is comparible, state-of-the-art-wise. Quality and cost combined with timely service (plus the corporate ethos) matters to me most, and although Trek makes some (clearly not all) quality projects, there are equally as good (and clearly better) products in the marketplace at a lower cost to the consumer. I do appreciate the listing of (mostly) US made bikes, but frankly I seriously doubt any are truly 100% with all components taken into consideration.
The only “political activism” I am aware of from Trek is that they advocate for cycling in the US. The only reason that is “political” is because big oil, big coal companies have the politicians in their pocket.
You are correct that it’s almost impossible to buy a factory build bicycle made in the U.S. You are not correct, however, that Treks are over-priced. The bicycle market is shrinking. it is very competitive, and the used and online market is very active. These three factors have driven the price and profitability downward.
This has also caused a rapid decline in the number of bike shops to close. If you care about cycling and the U.S. you can, at the very least, support your local shops that pay local taxes, advocate for cyclists, and support local charities.
Trek threw Greg LEMOND under the bus in favor of Lance (ph)Armstrong. Trek corporate KNEW that (ph)Armstrong was riding dirty BUT he was winning on a Trek.
Sweet! I am planning on getting a new bike for the summer and I am so glad I have this American-made list. Thanks for letting me know about these great companies.
Wow! With so many American bike makers, there is certainly no need whatsoever to buy a cheesy foreign-made one. Thanks for the sources.
Shinola’s are “assembled” in Detroit, from parts from elsewhere (read: China).
Shinola frames are made in Waterford, WI at the Waterford Precision Cycles factory. For the most part, the frame is the focus of the above list. If you want to use that that logic, then any bike with a Shimano part would be merely “assembled” in the U.S. It’s about as American made as you can get without going completely custom on every part.
so, what about kids’ bikes?
Hi Jamie- It’s a year later and I’m still looking for American made kids’ bikes to add to the list!
BCA from Kent bikes sells bikes at Walmart that are assembled in the US. That is probably as close as we can get, for now.

Please include Firemans Texas Cruiser. Hand welded in the USA for 20 years!!
http://www.firemansbikes.com
prodecotech.com makes both electric and regular bicycles here in Florida. I am a customer, not an owner/employee.
Thank you Perry! I am doing the update now and I added them to the list!
Hi Tracey: Thanks so much for putting this together. I’m the founder of Organic Transit and we build the ELF in the US. Legally an electric bike, the ELF is a Solar/Pedal Hybrid built entirely in North Carolina. We’ve delivered 800 units in 3 years and they’ve covered 3 million miles!
Thanks,
Rob
Hello Rob! Just wanted to say that I have seen your Elf’s and I absolutely love them! Have watched videos and done research on them and they are pretty amazing, I’ll definitely purchase one when I get my finances together as I’m sure they are not cheap! Thanks for your hard work in putting out such a great product!
Your future customer,
George.
Prodeco Tech advertises its bikes as “Built in the USA”. A few years ago, I ordered one of their bikes which was not delivered as promised. After the second promised ship date passed I spoke to an employee (not a salesman, but a grunt who answered the phone after normal business hours). He stated they were waiting for the cargo containers from China. I asked how could that be if the bikes were”Built in the USA” and he stated that the bikes were partially assembled and adjusted in the Florida which justifies their claim that they are “Built” in the USA, but of course they import essentially complete bikes manufactured in China. I cancelled the order the next business day. Unless you can independently verify that today they actually manufacture bikes in the USA, it is my opinion they should not be included on a list of “Made in the USA” products especially since they themselves only claim “Built in the USA”.
John Sotherland is a frame builder in Whitewater Wisconsin has a long history with Schwinn, Waterford, and Rivendell. He is now building under his own name – Sotherland Custom Bicycles in Whitewater Wisconsin where he owns a bicycle shop.

http://detroitbikes.com/
Thanks! I added Detroit Bikes to the updated list.
Detroit Bikes are made in West Detroit. ProdecoTech builds electric bikes in Florida, some with USA made frames.
Thanks Tom! I just added them both to the list for our update!
Aren’t Yolo bikes made in USA?
I believe this is also a custom bike builder – made in the USA.
Utah Trikes – sorry left off the original post.
Thanks for the tip Bill! I updated the post and added Utah Trikes.
Thanks so very much for this made-in-the-USA bike list!!!
Was going to say you left off the awesome Bike Friday (perfect for a college student) and the touring bike company Co-Motion, but someone mentioned them. Also, Bent Up Cycles in No Hollywood CA makes a carbon- framed bike in his back room called the Carbent. Great bike for racing long distance.
Thanks for the recommendations Constance! I just added all of these companies to the post for our update!
I tend to think of it as our workshop, not just the back room 🙂 Thanks for thinking of us, Constance.

Wonderful indeed!!
Sick with stickers like made in China! The list will help out to choose a bike made in USA. Though wondering for sometime to custom build one.
Thanks for the list
“My aim is to build frames that do not hold the rider back from the highest level of performance and enjoyment. The trophies in my shop were not won at bike shows…they were won at races all over the U.S.A. While I have a background in art and have built some fairly elaborate frames, my strong suit is building straight forward performance machines for people who really like to ride. That is the way it has been pretty much since the completion of that first frame in the summer of 1978.”
-Paul Sadoff, Rock Lobster Cycles, Santa Cruz, California

Don’t forget Firefly Bikes – made in Boston.
Thanks Glen! I just added Firefly Bikes to the list.
Been looking at 7 spd hybrid cruisers. The 3G brand says it born in California, but are they currently made in the USA? Also trying to spend closer to 300-350. Any recommendations?
I bought a 3G several years ago because I was told it is made in the USA. Looking at the website now, I am not sure if they still are or not. I loved mine until a friend used it and let it get stolen. I plan on getting a new one. The cost between it and those made in China was minimal, so it was a no brainer to get the one made in the US. I hope they are still made here.
S&M Bikes is an American manufacturer of BMX bikes since 1987. They’ve had some goofy names for their bikes, such as the widowmaker, the Challenger (for dirt-racing only, because riding street would make it break up like the space shuttle), and the Holmes (named after the porn star). They’re internationally renowned in the BMX world, and obviously rider-owned. Their sponsored riders regularly win competitions such as in the X-Games. Basically all of the parts they produce are made in their warehouse in Santa Ana, California. (one of their old slogans was “Made right here in the US of A by Mexicans.”)
Great list — who knew that there were so many?!
We build Zen Bike Co bikes as well as frames for some of the brands on your list in Portland , Oregon
Standard Byke
Thanks Adam! I added Standard to the list.
Also check out Slingshot bikes in Grand Rapids, MI.
Last time I checked CoMotion Bicycles were still made in Eugene, Oregon – not Colorado. Dean Bicycles are made in Boulder, Colorado – an excellent titanium frame maker.
I love love to find a good family bike, we (wife, me and the kids) love to bike, but we can’t find any American made kids bikes. I might have to start a bike company. Crowdfunding is a good way to raise funds…
BCA from Kent Bicycles makes a BMX bikes that sells at Walmart for under $100. Many of the components are from outside the US, however. Worksman makes Adult Dutchie bikes that are shipped to your house and starting under $500. Expensive, I know, but at least you can then customize them.
Independent Fab is in NH!
fitwellbikes in minneapolis mn
I just found your website while looking for bikes. The site says, “American Made.” Can you tell us if the bikes are actually and completely, “Made in America?” or are they like so many other products that advertise this and what you actually sell is “assembled in america.” That is the parts all being made elsewhere and only assembled in the USA. If assembled only, I’ll keep looking elsewhere. Thanks.
Bronson Silva Cycles are handmade in Campbell, CA
Thanks for the tip!
These prices are ridiculous. Don’t they make any entry level bikes at an affordable cost? MY GOD… it’s like any adult sized non-cruiser bike doesn’t drop under 2 GRAND! Even the cruisers don’t drop under $600. No body has that kind of money for a bike… a friken bike just in case you didn’t hear me the first time.
As my fabricator told me, “We’re a bunch of white guys with 401K’s. No we can’t compete with China.”
You’ve been spoiled by cheap foreign labor on EVERYTHING. If you want an American made bike, expect to pay an American labor price for it.
Ventana mountain bikes.
Thank you! I added them to the list.
I’m trying to find an affordable kids bike for my grandson that’s made in the USA, any suggestions?
Vassago is a 10 year old fabricator of 29’r hardtail mountain bike frames.

Thanks for the tip! I added Vassago Cycles to the list.
I believe the American Bicycle Group is the parent company of LiteSpeed, and they also make Quintana Roo triathlon bikes.

I’m thrilled to see so many companies manufacturing bikes here in the US!
Just to be clear, everyone should know that about 99% of the manufacturers on this list only produce very high end(read expensive) bikes for adults. Bikes for small kids are not their market, at all.
Trek should be on this list-they are literally the ONLY major bike brand(and the largest brand now in the world) to actually still continue to do US production-again, only on very high end bikes.
Yes.

Oh, and how about Strong Frames in Butte Montana? Been following his career for some time now.
Oh, and how about Titus or Niner Bikes? Aren’t they American Made? Please help me out here…thanks

A lot of these companies make bikes from sourced parts, materials that all originate overseas. At least from what i saw here and now. So what is a american made bike? A bike made here from parts overseas with no heart and soul put into it? Or a bike engineered, designed and prototyped here for mass production overseas? This list should be updated to cover companies that do all there work and manufacture here and a list of companies that engineer there stuff here in house for larger production elsewhere… Cause in my opinion (no i am not jamming my political view in this) either one could be made in usa. Thanks for listening.
You’re missing my 3 favorite USA made bike companies. Crust bikes in belmar New Jersey , oddity cycles in Fort Collins Colorado and sklar bikes in Bozeman Montana. Check em out.
It is not that are no Made in USA bicycles anymore. Rather, it is that there are no relatively AFFORDABLE, MASS MARKET, Made in USA bicycles anymore.
After the purchase of Cannondale by Dorel Industries and their subsequent decision to move production to Taiwan, you can no longer go out and buy a $500 “Handmade in USA” bike. Not that the $500 Cannondale has great components or specifications, it doesn’t. It has worse components and specifications than imports of the same price. But it was “Hand Made in USA” and people bought them for that reason. Well… that, the beautiful smoothed welds, nice under the clear coat decals and very neat, if not particularly high performance, implements like the “Head Shok”. At least I did.
Today’s it’s just another brand and there is no reason to buy a Cannondale.
Alchemy Bicycles, Denver.
Holland Cycles, California.
Also made mountain bikes?
Thank you so much! I just bought a Wally World tricycle because I couldn’t afford the 3K prices of other trikes. Needless to say, the bike doesn’t go very far before falling apart. I found a nice manufacturer on your site for under 1K. Thank you!
FBM are American made bikes. Mostly BMX but they make other types.
what are the name of all the bike build in the USA?
I love to buy Made in the USA! Problem with all of these manufacturers is price. I don’t mind spending $1500-$2000 for a decently, good bike. Most of these manufacturers run anywhere from $3500-$10000….LUDACRIS!!
