The Emory Difference

Less is More

No one bike can provide every riding possibility. We set out to make the most durable and well-crafted, sophisticated yet simple to ride, maintain and use coastal bicycle. Not a cargo bike or a mountain bike or a road bike. Later maybe – but first the best Coastal Cruiser ever.

Tradition

We presented the first cruiser bike ever made in 1976. The “Emory Mojave” changed everything. Later we made the last Western Flyer bike for Western Auto. We make our own tooling in house and today we use CAD, CAM, and CNC to provide an improved product second to none. And most importantly over ninety percent of our bicycle, frame, fork and parts are made in the U.S.A.

Back up and Guarantee

Every frame displays a unique serial number which is stamped into the head tube and our computers track the finished bike all the way to the eventual owner. We hold this information forever and it allows us to extend the ten year guarantee against defects in workmanship when the bike is maintained through us or an authorized dealer.

Civic Responsibility

Every Bike sold will generate a contribution to the Leukodystrophy Foundation in honor of Clayton Emory Smith IV (our C4 bikes bear his name) who succumbed to AMN in 2019 at the age of twenty seven. Clayton was an integral part of our family business and his dedication and hard work is sorely missed.

Maintenance

While wear and tear on tires and tubes, for example, cannot be avoided our use of tapered roller bearings with optional seals on these three moving parts: Headtube, Bottom Bracket, and Front Hub ensures years of maintenance free operation and when coupled with our Reynolds “921” Stainless Steel frames and forks one can expect decades of use not years.

Customizable Options

You decide just what you need and want on your Emory C-4. Internal gearing is available up to seven (7) speeds but you might decide the three or even one speed is sufficient for your application. You pick your tires. Mens or ladies mild steel, stainless steel, or titanium frames. Five different anodizing choices await you as well as your choice of seat and many more options.
