The idea for Pelago has developed during the last 10 years. Riding long kilometers in the city and out on the road has brought us where we are. We have taken part in bike development at the university, learned our lessons at a local service shop, dug out parts from junk yards, and fixed bikes for our friends. Yet there is still a lot to explore, and that keeps us motivated. Our aim is to make bicycles that you can be as proud of as we are – bikes that still ride in 2050 – bikes that serve the purpose.

We believe in optimism. Sustainability is a common effort. It’s not just what you buy – it’s what you make. It’s about what you do at work. Small things matter – and we want to contribute. Still, we try not to take bikes too seriously. Coming from a creative background, we look forward to enjoy the work and share the fun with others.

Durable, useful, beautiful. In 2009 we introduced our first bicycles and opened a shop and service in Vallila district, uptown Helsinki. The bikes are made in Europe, lugged steel frames for men and women, from single speeds to 8-speeds. We offer reliable bikes for everyday use.
