RUFF CYCLES Our Story

OUR STORY

Sicker than your average - Background

We take the naming of our company and our products very personal. No external consultancy for us, because this is our thing. This is what we love, this is what gets us hyped and this is what inspires us. 

It’s fantastic to see how many people also share our passion for bold, iconic and unconventional bikes, and who also recognizes the true craftsmanship of hip-hop street-style.

RUFF CYCLES Our Story

Especially the lowriders cruising majestically through the streets of L.A., like in Masta Ace’s “Born to Roll” or the bikes in DMX’s “Ruff Rider’s Anthem” videos.

This passion is united with our skills in building bikes from the ground up. Over the past ten years we have grown our passion to what RUFF CYCLES is today – a hip-hop street culture lifestyle-brand.”
