Collection: Abbey Bike Tools

Our mission is simple, build the best quality bicycle tools on the market.

The name Abbey started before the tool business was even a thought. When Jason was still splitting time between the race circuit and a bike shop in Bend Oregon, he and another employee wanted to build some bike frames. Between the two of them they had everything needed to build bicycle frames except a name. Jason's cohort in this endeavor loved Belgium. The fowl weather, the cobbles, frites, beer, bike racing and especially cyclocross. Jason liked Belgium and also had a home brewing hobby and wanted to turn the tables of the craft beer scene using names from cycling. After many options Abbey was mentioned and it was the obvious choice. There might have been some libations involved but a web address was purchased moments later. Abbey Bike Works was born on the spot and adorns the down tubes of a couple dozen bicycle frames around Oregon. Despite the legit fabrication skills Jason had it wasn't anything that was started with intention of being an actual business. 
Abbey Bike Works built a dozen or so frames before the bike shop went out of business during the economic downturn. At this point, Jason took the name and  started a mobile bike service to earn a living and stay in Bend. This mobile business led to wrenching at regional bike races.
The bicycles that we ride today have a level of performance that is drastically different than when many of us started riding. With that performance comes a need to maintain them to a comparable level. Tools on the market at the time couldn't offer the precision needed to allow those high performance parts to perform at their best. This is where our motto "precision is our religion" was born. 
We design new tools without concern for the final price. This doesn't mean we aim to build expensive tools. Rather, we aren't willing to cut corners in the name of price. This is the reason that we have such a loyal following among professional race mechanics across all disciplines and around the world. When time matters and results pay the bills there's only one tool company that you want in your hand, sponsors be damned. We stay in touch with many of those customers for new product ideas and that's where most of our products are tested, in the rigors of racing. 
Since our inception and to this day, Abbey Bike Tools is committed to manufacturing in the United States. All of our tools are made and assembled in Bend, OR.
