Fix it please!
Have an older bike that needs a little - or a lot - of love?
Specializing in steel vintage bikes, we'll make you fall in love with your ride all over again! We love older bikes and will take care of your vintage bike the way no one else will. You'll be back cruisin' the streets in no time!
I want to build my ride!
You don't have a bike but desire to ride in style...
We have an inventory of frames ready to be yours! Our first step will be a consultation with you to figure out what you like and put ideas together depending on your riding style, taste, and budget. Consultation is free, of course!
Get me on the road!
You just want a bike-now
We try to keep a few bikes on hand that are ready to hit the road! Get in touch and we'll find out if we have one that can work for you!
Bikes marked "for sale" in the gallery are currently available.
Most design elements on each bike (frame colour, saddle, handlebars, grips, tires, crank colour, pedals, cables, etc.) are completely customizable.
Then you pick your ride based on our 2 key models.
Our 2 key models:
The Roadster
-
Single Speed
-
Coaster brake
-
Front caliper brake
This is our signature bike. Featuring a singlespeed drivetrain, what really sets this bike apart is the coaster rear brake (remember pedaling backwards to stop when you were a kid?). With the Roadster, you get a bike with that clean ‘fixie’ look yet is also easy and comfortable for anyone to ride. It's always ready to hop on and is truly the urban adventurer’s dream come true.
New build starts at $950 + GST
The Speedster
-
Seven speed
-
Front/Rear caliper brakes
Retaining the sleek look of a track crank up front, this bike features a versatile 6-speed cassette in the rear. We keep a classic feel with a downtube shifter, and include caliper brakes on front and rear. With this drivetrain set-up, this bike can handle nearly any urban terrain without breaking a sweat.
New build starts at $1045 + GST

Shake Your Tailfeather!
This bike had been at the farm for a long time before we had the privilege of giving it a roadster makeover. We're so proud of this one! Plus it belongs to one of the nicest people ever! Happy riding!
We love the premium color on this awesome speedster on an Apollo frame. This bike's owner knew what she wanted and she is as happy as we are about this beautiful bike!
Ridden hard every day on the streets of Vancouver!

Tailfeather was born out of a simple need for a new bike. But getting that right blend of stylish, unique, and fun proved surprisingly tough... so we decided to make one! It turned a lot of heads and lots of people started asking for their own... yadda yadda yadda here we are!
