To Make Cycling Simple
We’re committed to making the best low maintenance bicycles in the world, period. Our strategy is simple: high quality parts, an efficient supply chain, low overhead, and an online business model. No gimmicky bells and whistles. No frills.
It all started when Dave, our founder, couldn’t recommend a bicycle to his friends. They were all looking for the same thing: a bike that’s good looking, not overly technical, light, comfy, easy to ride, easy to maintain, and priced right. So, he did what any rational person would do—he quit his job as CEO of a multi-national software company to start his own business.
Okay, it wasn’t that simple. Dave grew up in the bicycle industry and worked for some of the biggest players in the game. As a father of three, Dave also wanted to shift his “priorities”—rather than spending endless hours in an office, he wanted to spread his love for cycling while also spending more time with his family. That’s where we got our name.
From there, Dave worked on his vision to create a hassle-free, everyday bike for recreational riders that would be affordable and free of routine maintenance.
On July 15, 2014 we launched on Kickstarter—opting for a crowd-funded approach with a goal of raising $30,000 to fund the first shipment of what would later be called “The Priority Classic.” Nervously, Dave hit “launch” and waited. And waited. After what seemed like days (but was only minutes), the first backers entered. The goal was hit within a few hours, and over the course of the 30-day campaign, Priority Bicycles raised $565,000 with over 1,500 bicycles backed.
That campaign was the first of three fully-funded Kickstarter campaigns, all of which delivered on-time to all backers. Priority now has numerous bicycle models, shipped thousands of bicycles around the world, and features partnerships with premium resorts, educational institutions, and top-rated tours in major US cities and locations spanning the globe.

Fleet Bicycles are ridden with greater frequency, longer, and harder than standard consumer bicycles. They are often in beautiful locations that tend to be very hard on bicycle upkeep. We have designed our bicycles with that in mind. They have high quality and engineered for ease of use and require no regular maintenance. This means that they are built to withstand sustained use by all levels of riders.
We take a consultative approach whether it be 4 bicycles or 400, making recommendations based on our experience to keep your fleet running happy and healthy. Email us (below) for our fleet pricing discounts and customization options.
