At Co-Motion Cycles, we’ve built our reputation on constructing cleanly designed and elegantly executed bicycles since 1988: Bicycles that serve a real purpose for cyclists who expect real performance without unnecessary hype.
From tandems to touring bikes, our approach to building bicycles draws from traditional elements, yet we’ve openly discarded anything that doesn’t serve the purpose of making a better bicycle. The emphasis here is on design, from the very tubing that your Co-Motion is made of, to the way every one of our bicycles interacts with the human body.
Co-Motion is driven by our innate passion to find and implement ways to make better bicycles. We're thinking about the next innovation every time we ride. Guided by our experience, by research and the voices of our customers, we’re thoroughly engaged in the excitement of creating the next great bike; yours.
The Metolius is the latest culmination of Co-Motion tandem design and Bosch technology plus countless hours of testing and refining. This e-tandem is quite possibly the most versatile bicycle we've built to date.
Based on a similar platform as the popular Steelhead road/ gravel tandem, the Metolius utilizes the most powerful Bosch Performance pedal-assist motor integrated with an electronic shifting Rohloff internally geared hub or SRAM 12-speed drivetrain for the ultimate riding experience. Ride farther with more comfort and less effort.

“The Siskiyou rides soooo smooth! It’s an amazing descender, the geometry working with the big tires to give huge confidence. If the test of a bike is how much you choose to ride it over other bikes, the Siskiyou is a success. ”
