About the job
At Solé Bicycles we believe it’s not where you’re going, it’s how you get there. We believe your bicycle should be an extension of your life. Your bicycle should be live music, it should be art, it should epic, it should be dawn patrol and late night adventures.
Solé Bicycle Company was founded in 2009 by a group of friends who were fed up with the state of bicycles. With a shared determination and vision, we set out to introduce high performance, stylish and affordable bicycles to the planet.
Fast forward six years and we’re still doing what we love — putting our passion for design, simplicity and community into every bicycle we create. You'll catch us working day and night at our Venice, Calif. headquarters to help you fall in love with your daily commute.
