Touring
We are dreamers, without question.
But Bike Friday owners have taken their touring Fridays to places we couldn't have imagined. Your New World Tourist, Pocket Llama, Pocket Crusoe or Pocket Companion offer custom fit, strength, integrity, dependability and ingenious features to encourage you to dream big.
The geometry of Bike Friday’s touring frame is designed for comfort and reliable handling over long distance.
We also offer touring bicycles in Petite sizes.
NWT BF 20th Anniversary
When we began to look ahead to celebrating our 20th Anniversary on April 1, 2012, we wondered what we should do to pay tribute to our success.
Two sources of pride rose to the top of our list: Our roots in building high performance touring bicycles and our commitment to remain a Made in USA company.
We combined those elements to create the 20th Anniversary New World Tourist USA. It is our dream touring Bike Friday equipped with as many products Made in the USA as we could possibly find.
If you take a close look at the companies who make up the essence of our 20th Anniversary Bike Friday, you will see a theme of independence and innovation.
We plan to build 20 of these Bike Fridays in a limited run. Contact a Bike Consultant if you are interested in Pre-Ordering 20th Anniversary New World Tourist USA for delivery in April.
