Things to know about All-City Cycles

If you take a look at All-City’s homepage, you might get the impression that everyone is there just for fun rather than work. Their headquarter is full of passionate bikers, pro bike mechanics, leisure bikers and the occasional bike racer. Everyone there apparently has chain lube in their veins and is part of the lively Minneapolis bike community. Perfect conditions for developing bikes that cater to urban biker’s needs.

All-City’s bikes are different…

Knowing this, it will not surprise you to hear that All-City Cycles builds bikes that catch the eye with their elegant and unconventional design. And will last for decades thanks to robust steel or titanium frames. That manage to combine a good performance and good looks and at the same time make your everyday routines hit the next level.

Bikes with steel or titanium frames

In order to build bikes that are durable and lightweight at the same time, All-City Cycles came up with A.C.E. steel that allows extra-thin tubing and reduces frame weights considerably. Geometry and diameters of All-City steel frames are engineered to combine a perfect balance between comfort and efficiency. If you prefer your bike to be that extra bit exclusive you have the option to spoil yourself with a titanium frame. All-City does not mess with any old titanium mix, however. You will be treated to a proprietary titanium blend by the name of Oberon. Oberon gives a little more to your bike. More durability. More efficiency. A more lively and direct feeling on your bike. On the other hand it reduces your bike’s weight.

But it isn’t the frame material that makes All-City bikes special. That is the paint’s job. Color runs, candy colors, a multi-layered wet paint look or splashes of color – obviously the designers are set loose to go crazy.

All-City’s gravel bikes and urban bikes

All-City Cycles does not offer a huge portfolio, there are gravel bikes, cyclocross bikes and urban bikes with a single speed drivetrain. The bikes are made for speed, you could even take them out racing. But they are not truly racing bikes, each model offers a big chunk of down-to-earth, everyday usability. We’ve also got a few frame sets for you in the online store.

But why should you buy a bike made by All-City Cycles? Because you will not find other bikes that are ready-made but don’t look it. And because few bikes manage to combine your daily routes with so much grace and style.

And why should you buy a frame made by All-City? If you’re on the search for a lightweight basis for a very special bike, All-City Cycles is your place to go to. If you want detailed designs and top-notch workmanship and fantastic paints, here you will find them.

Here on BMO you can buy complete bikes as well as frames, they all follow All-City’s credo: Damn fine bikes!
