JITENSHA
Design, quality and comfort are at the heart of JITENSHA. Minimalism, purity, sober, french chic make the JITENSHA style. Our bicycles are inspired from Japan, designed in France and hand-assembled in Annecy, France.
MINIMALIST DESIGN
A search for the purity makes the JITENSHA style: sober, a branding reduced to the essentials, for elegant and minimalist urban bikes. It is the Japanese art of living that has inspired in our search for essential, elegance, fluidity, simplicity, purity and poetry.
HAND- ASSEMBLED IN EUROPE
Our mechanics fully assembles your JITENSHA when we receive your order in our Annecy workshop. Every thread is greased, every bolt tightened, and once assembled, every JITENSHA is “human-tested” before being prepared, boxed and shipped to you.
CURATED FOR QUALITY
We’ve taken a year to design, select, test, benchmark and fine tune all our parts. Our selection has focused on design, performance and quality.
FAIR AND SIMPLE PRICING
Quality accessible at a fair price thanks to online distribution. The colour of the frame and accessories only have an impact on your JITENSHA's price.
FRAME MATERIAL COUNTS
Our frames are hand-made using double-butted Cr-Mo 4130 steel (chromoly). This steel alloy is the most suitable for city bicycles. It delivers superior comfort to other trendy materials (aluminium, titanium or carbon). It has a natural flex to absorb the road vibrations. Comparing to standard Steel, Cr-Mo has double the strength and this enables to gain significant weight whilst having the ideal balance of strength, weight and durability.

★★★★★A daily cyclist in the urban jungle of Brussels, my Jitensha is my first experience on a singlespeed and it’s a real treat. I sneak into the traffic, I swallow the slopes without difficulty and I discover a new way to travel by bike. Aesthetically, my chrome does not go unnoticed and it is not uncommon for me to be approached by other road users to discuss my Jitensha until the fire goes green!
★★★★★I recommend with eyes closed this beautiful bike! Everything is simple but it is this simplicity that makes this experience unique. I am even stopped in the street to tell me that my bike is beautiful! Just happy with this purchase! Thank you !
