Simply Better Bikes.
Wabi makes lightweight steel bikes for people who love to ride. Thoughtfully designed, built with quality components, and stripped of everything you don’t need.
The result is a bike that feels fast, smooth and beautifully simple — with the freedom to make it your own.
The wabi difference
Light Where It Matters
The smooth ride and timeless feel of steel, without the weight you expect. Our carefully selected tubing creates bikes that are responsive, comfortable and remarkably light.
Better From the Start
A great frame deserves great parts. We choose every component for performance, reliability and feel — no throwaway parts, no upgrades required just to make the bike right.
Nothing It Doesn’t Need
Simple by design, not by omission. Clean lines, purposeful details and fewer distractions create a bike that looks better, works better and puts the focus where it belongs: the ride.
Make It Yours
Start with a Wabi. Finish with your Wabi. Choose the setup, components and details that fit how you ride and how you want your bike to look.

I love my Wabi Special and enjoy riding it around town just for fun and exercise, and I get unsolicited compliments on it from people. Riding a bike with modern, new-bike performance and the aesthetic of my dad's old vintage steel tube bike is whimsically anachronistic.

My Wabi went together easily. I was riding within 45 minutes of opening the box. Push down on the pedals and the bike moves smoothly forward. I dialed in the fit over an hour and this bicycles is now in my training schedule. One word: sweet!

10 stars out of 5!! Love your bikes. Now if you could only make an ATB type of fixed gear with 26+2 tire and a shock fork. That would be great.

It's exactly as fun as the Classic, but it's SO much smoother to hit a pothole with because of the compact geometry and the greater amount of exposed seatpost. I prefer the handling of the old curved fork a little better, but maybe that will change as I get a few more rides in and get used to it more. The Prism is better just for exposed seatpost alone though.

I like the wabi stock 32 spoke wheels as they may be the best bang for your buck especially at that light weight.

Those were not in stock so I got these. Slightly heavier but strong 32 spoke wide wheels. With good tires they are super smooth on nyc streets. If you are a city rider it’s hard to beat either of these sets. Wabi s may be slightly snappier and easier on hills but these are just smooth, wider and def faster/lighter than the Weinmann I replaced.
I like larger spoke counts in the city at my weight with a commuter bag so it’s harder to keep cost and weight down without sacrificing quality.
These feel great.
You can also upgrade the stock size bearings later easily making them closer to sets that cost twice as much.

I got essentially the same frame a long time ago and the bike turned out to be my favorite possession -- bar none. You might think it's a big price tag until you start riding it, and then you realize it's worth every penny.

Last chance! We had all of our remaining unpainted Classic and Thunder stock powder-coated in Ion Blue and Metallic Green (a slightly lighter version of Mystic Green- see image) if you are still hoping to pick one of these up. Some sizes came back in stock with these added frames. These powder-coat versions are the same price as our painted models (as powder coat is usually more expensive). After this, these models will not be available again.

The first two Prism builds left the shop today!
Haze Grey and Oleo Yellow with two completely different builds: a drop bar singlespeed shredder, and a swept back, stylish fixed gear cruiser. Those @nitto_handlebar_works Dove bars look right at home with 38mm @panaracer_world Pasela Protites, while the silver parts and brown contact points ooze class, paired with our finest Oleo.
We're excited to see what other sweet builds you all come up with!

Prism is now available. Built around a lightweight Reynolds 725 steel frame, it keeps the responsive character of our track-inspired bikes while adding clearance for tires up to 38mm, full frame and fork mounts, greater standover clearance, and a straight chromoly fork for a stiffer, more direct feel. Both complete builds and framesets are available in 3 colors. For builds, we've also revamped the options builder to offer 2 choices: 'Standard' for more straightforward builds and 'Advanced' for more complex builds. Advanced now includes more gearing changes/upgrades too. #wabicycles #singlespeed #fixedgear

Prisms have landed at our warehouse. On Sale, Wednesday, September 9th. Our latest model combines the best of the Classic and the Thunder with a few improvements that you wanted. Wide tires (even works with 40mm!) with caliper brakes, more compact geometry with easier standover, straight fork for more control, and a full set of eyelets/bosses for racks and fenders. Haze Grey, Oleo Yellow and a limited-edition iridescent Aura Purple. We also have a few other goodies - silver All-Road wheels, a new Wabi Courier crankset (both seen on the Aura Purple), and a few other new things. More to come. #wabicycles #fixedgear #fixedgearlife #singlespeed

New wheelsets just arrived - Velocity A23s with Non-Machined Sidewalls. In all-black or all-silver. Non-Machined Sidewalls (NMSW) are for those, especially those riding fixed, looking for 'clean' rims with no machined brake tracks. That means smooth all-black or all-silver rims matched with black nipples, spokes, and hubs. Of course, these can also be used with brakes, but you'll get some initial noise and then finish removal over time (Note that this is what all rims were like up until the late 80s.). Being A23s, they are tubeless ready - even tubeless taped! Fixed/freewheel hubs. #wabicycles #fixedgear #singlespeed #velocityA23

Functional, well-thought-out upgrades only for this build.

What's more iconic than a red bike? We've got a nice custom Classic in RAL 3020 for you this morning. All stock parts with a gold chain—what more could you need? (Probably not much!)
We say it a lot, but we'll say it again: We prioritize using high-quality stock components on complete builds, so you get a bike out of the box that's ready to rip. No wasting time and money with parts that won't perform!

Introducing the Wabi Prism—our newest lightweight steel fixed-gear/single-speed frameset.
We took what riders love about the Classic and the Thunder, added years of customer feedback, and created our most versatile frame yet.
Features include: • Lightweight Reynolds 725 tubing with a more compact geometry that's quick to handle and easier to stand over. • Clearance for 38mm tires while retaining the simplicity and feel of caliper brakes. • Straight-blade lugged fork for a more direct, confident ride. • Rack and fender mounts for commuting, touring, or everyday riding, but no welded cable stops! • A new head badge and logo with the same understated Wabi look.
Available in sizes for riders from 5'0" to 6'4"+ in Black, Yellow, and a limited-edition Purple.
Arriving August/September. More details to come.
With the introduction of the Prism, the Classic and the current Thunder will be retired (though the Thunder may return in a new iteration at a future date). If you've been considering either model, now is the time—they'll be available only while current inventory lasts. #wabicycles #fixedgear #singlespeed #reynolds725

It's a family affair! Since Father's Day is around the corner, we want to share a meticulously spec'd father-daughter duo for you this morning:
First up, a 650B conversion 49cm Classic with a Vintage crankset, @panaracer_world Gravelking Slick 38s, @connexbywippermann 108 chain (classy), and @brooksengland Microfibre tape (also classy).
Next, looks like Dad had to one-up last month's Heritage Blue track build! 55cm Special with @sugino.jp 75s, @halcyondaysrt Superstar cog, @nitto_handlebar_works track drops, @whiteind headset, and a @bikethomson Masterpiece seatpost just to top it all off.
Seems like good taste runs in the family.
