Deschutes: The Adventure Touring Bike with American Craftsmanship

Discover the Deschutes, a handmade adventure touring bike that combines Co-Motion’s renowned craftsmanship with unbeatable value. When we say value, we say compare it to nearly any bike you see in this on the rack of bikes made outside the US and you will see we are often a better price for a handmade in the USA, and made by a cyclist, not a machine. Built right here at Co-Motion HQ in Eugene, Oregon, this bike delivers the performance and quality of a true American-made bicycle, standing out among imported competitors. There are American companies, and then there are bikes made in America by cyclists just like you.

"I'm really happy we went with the Deschutes instead of the standard LHT. I'd been used to a triple for touring but I'm convinced now that a double with the mountain bike rear cassette is the way to go. I'm already dreaming about the next trip." Scott D.

"I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the Deschutes bike. It feels much better than the Trek 520 and the gearing for me is great. I have ridden every day since getting it, thanks again and love the bike!" Dean D.

"I finished a 1500 mile tour this summer with my Deschutes and the bike handled every conceivable surface from big rock dirt roads to gravelly bike trails to road surfaces. Wonderful."
