ALLIED began a dream eight years ago: to make the best bikes in the world, right here at home. We've made huge strides in those years, moving from a small, custom road frame builder to producing best-in-class off-road products that climb the podium of the LifeTime Grand Prix, and making our debut in World Cup XCO racing with former World Champion Kate Courtney.
However, to continue to push the dream and give our customers the best ALLIED experience, we’ve decided to shift some production overseas and partner with trusted and established manufacturers in Asia.
To be transparent about our journey to grow in 2025 and beyond, Drew Medlock (CEO) and Sam Pickman (Director of Product and Engineering) of Allied Cycle Works wanted to share an in-depth look at our current state of production, our manufacturing evolution, and how combining our efforts overseas with those of the team we've built at home is an exciting way forward.
