Open Bikes

OPEN Bikes has carved out a unique space in the cycling world by focusing on precision and innovation over growth for growth's sake. With a commitment to crafting bikes that perform on any surface, their frames are engineered to support larger tires and multiple wheel configurations, giving cyclists unparalleled flexibility. Whether you're navigating rough gravel roads or smooth asphalt, these bikes deliver a ride that feels agile, comfortable, and stable in any environment.

The UP, UPPER, and WIDE models have set new standards in gravel cycling, becoming synonymous with the spirit of adventure and exploration. Meanwhile, the OPEN MIN.D. was developed as the perfect road bike, capturing the vision of co-founders Andy Kessler and Gerard Vroomen to create a ride that is as exhilarating on long, open roads as it is precise and responsive on tight, technical routes.

At R&A Cycles, we're proud to offer our customers these exceptional bikes, each crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to performance. Whether you're chasing new horizons on gravel or carving up pavement on a road bike, OPEN Bikes delivers the freedom to ride wherever your heart desires, with the confidence that your bike can handle anything.

A Brand Built to Conquer Every Road: OPEN

The OPEN lineup—including the MIND, UP, UPPER, and WIDE—embodies the brand’s core philosophy of innovation and adventure. The OPEN UP changed the game in gravel riding, with its feather-light frame and ability to clear wide tires, making it the go-to bike for tackling rough gravel roads or rugged off-road trails. The OPEN MIND takes road cycling to the next level, combining speed and comfort for an unparalleled riding experience, while the OPEN WIDE delivers even greater tire clearance than the UP, without sacrificing agility or speed, making it the perfect partner for the most challenging routes. Whether you’re hitting pavement or gravel, OPEN bikes redefine what it means to ride anywhere.

At the heart of every OPEN bike is a relentless commitment to pushing the limits of cycling design and technology. Each bike is thoughtfully crafted to ensure peak performance and maximum durability, giving cyclists the confidence to take on any terrain, from remote trails to fast-paced roads. OPEN empowers riders to embrace the spirit of exploration, whether you’re setting out on an ambitious bikepacking journey or simply taking the road less traveled.

What truly sets OPEN apart is its dedication to constant innovation and collaboration. Co-founders Gerard Vroomen, a visionary in bike engineering, and Andy Kessler, a cycling enthusiast through and through, have combined their expertise to create bikes that not only perform at the highest level but also redefine the boundaries of what a bike can do. By incorporating cutting-edge materials and pioneering manufacturing techniques, OPEN bikes are built to lead the cycling industry in both functionality and performance.

As pioneers in adventure biking, OPEN challenges traditional cycling conventions, inspiring riders to break free from the ordinary and explore the world on their terms. Whether it’s a fast road ride or a rugged gravel adventure, OPEN bikes invite you to experience the freedom and versatility of the open road. Embark on unforgettable journeys, embrace new challenges, and create lasting memories with OPEN—a brand that turns every ride into an epic adventure.
