Co-founders, childhood friends, and bike industry veterans Nick and Jonah started Stay True Cycles in 2019 to support the community that turned them into who they are.
After being head mechanic at Mike’s Bikes for many years, Nick opened up Stay True Cycles to have the freedom of his own shop.
Jonah has been working on bikes since he just 12 years old, and prior to opening Stay True worked and managed bike shops around the Bay Area, Canada, and Brooklyn, NY.
Let’s be honest, the bike world is not as inclusive as it should be. White men are much more represented than other genders, races, and ethnicities. In addition, biking can be expensive, which creates class discrimination. We want to change the culture of biking to be more inclusive so that everyone can enjoy the freedom of cycling.
