Steady Bicycle??

[irideiam]

I see Steady Bicycle is advertising on here now. Anyone try one yet and have a report. Cool looking frames for sure.

I get bizarre ads for women's clothing. Nothing as cool as bicycles

It has to do with what kind of sites you regularly visit...Matti...

Well, it's a little weird, because my internet breakdown is like 51% bikes, only 49% ladies' fashion.

Back to the original question....
@Rat Rod posted a review and I think a video on them. @irideiam
I think you will find it on the HOME page.

I am still curious about Steady bicycles. What I can say is I find it highly annoying that they are marketing themselves as an "American Classic" & "Collectable". How can they even be considered American Classics when they're not even made in the United States, or at least I assume they're not because they're not bragging about it. It seems like a whole lot of marketing fluff to me.

A company like Worksman on the other hand who is made in the USA ( their frames are anyway), could be considered an American Classic. But they seem to under market themselves because they are sold mainly for commercial not recreational use.

From their website...

We are one of the very few bicycle brands of today that do not dilute the quality of our products by manufacturing our bicycles in mainland China or by using low quality parts and components in our bikes.

... which sounds like pretty clear code for, 'Made in Taiwan'.

 

[MattiThundrrr]

"not made in mainland China"

 

[irideiam]

From my experience the made Taiwan frames are definitely nicer, but it doesn't make them American Classics",

Anyboby buy one of these?

I would consider buying a frame only, but they don't appear to retail those...yet.

Canada's finest?


I know them stickers "Made in Holland".......

Well, the Netherlands is not Holland, Holland are some provinces.
And they are "assembled" in the Netherlands (wheels, chain, tires, seat, fork and bars...) and still many companies do not use grease.

Achielle, BRIKbikes, Azor and Gazelle are I believe frames made in the Netherlands or BeNeLux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxemburg).

I hoped Worksman would up their American content by buying my grips, but my price is 8x what they pay for Chinese grips. Sad.
