Mission Statement

Mission Statement:

Atelier Olympia is a bicycle shop specializing in custom-built bikes and mid to high-end wheels. Our mission: to create unique, high-quality bicycles that promote cycling as both a sport and a lifestyle while supporting local labor and reducing environmental impact.

Quality Promise:

Atelier Olympia stands apart from major brands by treating each build as a bespoke project. One at a time, our bikes are put together to match the unique tastes and needs of our customers, ensuring lasting results and a quality far superior to mass production.

Local Expertise:

With large-scale outsourcing to Asia, bicycles have become standardized products, far removed from individual expectations. Atelier Olympia revives the art of custom craftsmanship—assembling each bike piece by piece in direct collaboration with the customer. While achieving 100% Canadian manufacturing and keeping costs reasonable remains an ongoing challenge, Atelier Olympia values local expertise and delivers an authentic, long-lasting product.

Personalized Result:

Owning a bike you truly love inspires you to use it. By building bicycles that reflect each rider’s preferences, Atelier Olympia encourages cycling driven by enjoyment, contributing to a greener, more sustainable, and active future.

Environmental Commitment:

Mass production in the cycling industry leads to excessive waste and environmental harm. Atelier Olympia builds each bike to order, using durable components sourced from small, often local suppliers to reduce overconsumption and minimize its ecological footprint.
