About

tokyobike is a small, independent bicycle company founded in 2002 in the quiet Tokyo neighbourhood of Yanaka. The inspiration and ethos for the brand began with the name. In the same way the mountain bike was designed for riding across mountains, tokyobike was conceived for pedalling around Tokyo. 

The concept of ‘Tokyo Slow’ emphasises comfort over speed, and a feeling of lightness from the first turn of the pedal. With a tokyobike, you’ll almost forget about the bike and simply enjoy the ride — it's a way to explore your city that's as much about the journey as the destination.
