Vanilla bicycles are beautifully badass, timeless, sexy and functional machines made for real people with real needs. They reflect a fusion of style, intuition and experience.
Obsessed with perfection in craft and design, we strive to make your bike faster, better working and visibly fresher than ever imagined.
We are Sacha White, owner/builder, Ben Leonard, master facilitator, and Scott Ramsey, the wrench. Each one-of-a-kind Vanilla begins with a dicussion and is born from hours of filing, polishing, measuring, cutting and brazing - every frame is designed and hand built by Sacha. We are a bike and a promise, not a production line.
Vanilla is a reflection of our environment. Socially and environmentally progressive, Portland, blends urban and outdoor spaces, attitudes and attributes. From organic community farms and a thriving bicycle scene to the hundreds of independent businesses like Stumptown Coffee Roasters, Portland continues to be a creative, athletic and well-intentioned hometown for Vanilla.
