Allied Bikes
Where US-made meets the road
Est. 2017Rogers, ArkansasRoadGravelMountain
From the consummate speed and poise of the asphalt-going Alfa to the fast-paced, all-road Echo and wide-tire, gravel-slaying Able, Allied bikes deliver on every level. And they're made in the US. And that bears repeating.
The Allied range
If you thought US-designed and built carbon fiber bikes were a pipe dream, you obviously haven't heard of Allied Bikes, whose stated mission is to make the best carbon fiber bicycles in the world, manufacturing them right here in America.
By controlling all aspects of production, Allied believes it can make superior bikes of superior quality, from brand to design to raw materials selection to manufacturing, paint and assembly. It's a philosophy neatly summed up in two words: MADE HERE - the 'here' being Arkansas.
None of this would matter if Allied's bikes didn't cut the American mustard. And on that point, there's no doubt - Allied bicycles are the real deal.
Beneath the surface of every Allied bike frame, the brand's story continues to impress. Between its high-quality, US-sourced pre-preg and winning blend of five flavors of aerospace-grade carbon fiber per bike, Allied consistently proves its commitment to building amazing bikes that can compete rim-to-rim with anything else on the market—and win.
Of its range-topping Alfa road bike, Allied says "It's not a "superbike, it's simply a superb bike — one that excels at every aspect of cycling, defies categorization, and disproves the logic of n+1. No weaknesses. No shortcomings." To that, we have to attest - the Alfa does it all, from panache on the climbs to control in the chaos of the pack and sheer speed on the flats.
But wherever the Alfa goes, the Echo isn't far behind - it may even be ahead, such is its adroit all-road speed and compelling Flip Chips geometry. Yet, despite accepting up to 40mm tires, the Echo can't shake its Grand Tour aspirations, so it settles for a rude compromise - fast absolutely everywhere. Road, trash tarmac, trail - the Echo delivers speed and sublime comfort at every turn.
Finally, for those with eyes only for the rocks, loose dirt, loam and slide, there's the Allied Able, a high-performance machine built for big tires, with a short rear end that delights in crisp, kinetic handling. Make no mistake, the Able mines the back catalog of its mountain bike brethren with a hardtail-esque mindset that eats gravel with a smile. From Unbound to wherever the wind blows, the Able is ready to crush it and keep coming back for more.
