Celebrating 50 Years of U.S. Operations (1974 – 2026)Our JourneyIn 1974, Wen and Susan Hsieh founded KHS Bicycles USA with a straightforward but powerful mission: to deliver high-quality, high-value, and reliable bicycles to the everyday rider. Over the next five decades, that mission transformed KHS from a specialized Southern California distributor into a global symbol of durability, innovation, and passion.From pioneering the first Taiwanese-made road bikes with Reynolds tubing in the late 1970s to capturing consecutive "Bike of the Year" awards, introducing legendary soft-tail designs, and claiming national downhill championships, KHS pushed the boundaries of what a bicycle company could achieve. Together with our subsidiary brands, Free Agent BMX and Manhattan Cruisers, we didn't just build bicycles—we built a community.To Our Dealers: A Heartfelt Thank YouOur success was never built in a vacuum. It was built on the retail floors, in the service bays, and through the tireless advocacy of our incredible network of independent bicycle dealers.For 50 years, you were the face of KHS. You introduced families to their first taste of freedom, set up competitive racers for the podium, and kept our wheels spinning in local communities across the country. Your dedication to the "Iron Triangle"—our shared philosophy of strong, respectful bonds between manufacturer, dealer, and rider—is what allowed us to become one of the longest-running bicycle businesses in the United States.We are endlessly grateful for your partnership, your loyalty, and the decades of hard work that made our history so vibrant.Operations ConcludedFollowing the well-deserved retirement of our founders, Wen and Susan, KHS Bicycles USA has officially closed its doors and concluded all U.S. distribution operations.Please note that this website is no longer an active dealer portal. While this marks the official end of our chapter here in the United States, the legal entity of KHS Bicycles Taiwan remains entirely independent and active globally.To the generations of employees, vendors, riders, and dealers who shared this ride with us: thank you for making it an unforgettable 50 years.Knowledge, Health, and Strength—Always.
