Tokyo
Adjust your seat post and ready-up for an exhilarating cycling tour through the local neighbourhoods of Tokyo on a classic 'steel' road bike, handcrafted by a Japanese master frame-builder.
Sought by collectors and bicycle enthusiasts throughout the globe, nothing compares to gracing the streets on the saddle of a vintage chromoly bike that's been meticulously crafted with Japanese precision and beauty.
Cycle in style on a rotating lineup of classic road and track bikes from the Japanese bicycle workshops of Zunow, 3Rensho, Nagasawa, Samson, Ganwell, Kalavinka, Nakagawa, Cherubim and company.
Backstreets, sidewalks and riverside cycling paths; this 20 km+ Tokyo vintage road bike tour will provide it all as we ride the eclectic local Tokyo wards of Nakano, Suginami, Musashino, and Mitaka on the inner west side of this bustling city.
*Please note that this tour is designed to discover lesser-known areas of Tokyo via road bike. Sightseeing stops are not included; this is an experience fully dedicated to cycling.
