Build a Better Future on Two Wheels
We build bikes that make it easier and more enjoyable to swap car trips for bike rides.
Biking isn’t just our job; it’s how we live. We create electric, cargo, and folding bikes that help people replace car trips with bike rides for commuting, errands, or staying active.
We're driven to keep innovating and advocating for better mobility by testing our designs and listening to feedback from the Tern community. Our goal: more bikes, better cities, and a healthier planet.
If that sounds like a future you want to be part of, why not join us for the ride?
