Nice writeup on our new Model No.5 on Coolhunting.
Introducing Budnitz Bicycles Model No.5, our new city bicycle built for speed and comfort, without sacrificing performance or style.
Over two years of engineering went into creating the world’s greatest step-through frame, one that’s both dignified on way to the office, and very fast tearing through back alleys on way home. Model No.5 is the ultimate bicycle for dressed-up daily commutes and weekend rides in the park.
The split-tube No.5 cantilever frame supports big 29-inch wheels and German-made evolution rubber tires that smooth over uneven city streets and dirt roads. Available in super-light titanium or cro-moly steel. Features carbon belt drive, our own titanium fork, stem, riser handlebars, seatpost and badges.
Built to last a lifetime with some of the best components in the world.
Starts at $2600.
In 1945, the average home size in the USA was 960 square feet. By 2010, this number had risen to 2140 square feet.
What changed?
Revolutions in production efficiency have meant that just about everyone can afford to have just about everything they want. At first this seemed wonderful, until we discovered that our homes, and our garages, were filling up with so much stuff. Suddenly our lives felt less spacious, more complicated, less free and less fun.
Our company philosophy is that a better way to live is to invest in owning fewer things that function to perfection, and that last a very long time. This way we get to enjoy, and fall in love with, the things we own.
— Paul Budnitz

It’s impossible to explain the magic of riding a great bicycle.
When we’re balancing without thinking, the handlebars, seat, and pedals become extensions of our body. A very good bicycle makes this experience as seamless as possible. The ride is efficient, smooth, and silent. There is a sense of effortless balance.
When that happens, the bicycle seems to ride itself. The big hill that seemed so high turns out to be not so steep after all. And the afternoon ride you took on a whim — around the corner, for a just few minutes — turns into a longer excursion to a place you never knew existed. Down a different street and far away.
We invite you to try one of our excellent bicycles this Spring. To encourage you to make the leap, we’re offering a no-questions asked return policy. We’re confident you’ll be extremely happy.

Just in time for spring, we’re rolling out the latest version of Budnitz Model No.2, our ultimate fast-rolling, go-anywhere bicycle.
Ultra-light, superfun, exceptionally quick. Perfect for short trips in the big city, dirt roads in the countryside, and sunny rides to the beach.
Simple, elegant design is what makes this bicycle great. The graceful No.2 cantilever frame flexes and absorbs road shock. Big German-made tires smooth over bumps, gravel, and dirt roads. The compact rear wheel makes for fast, aggressive acceleration. Nothing beats No. 2 when the light turns green – even most cars.
Investing in a few beautiful, well-made things simplifies our lives, and creates the space to enjoy them.
Made by hand in limited quantities. Starting at $2600.
