Introducing MONOCHROME: A New Era in Sports Biking by TRYCLE

A New Bike Adventure Begins: MONOCHROME

TRYCLE LLC proudly unveils its inaugural sports bike brand, MONOCHROME. This new line is set to launch its initial batch on November 9, 2025, at 6 PM, available at the BARACAN EC shop and various TRYCLE locations (Yanokuchi / Miyagase). This venture symbolizes TRYCLE's commitment to making high-quality biking accessible across the nation, with plans to collaborate with retail partners without sales quotas.

Brand Philosophy

The name MONOCHROME conveys a powerful ethos: “With every ride, add your color.” The brand aims to rekindle the essence of cycling—that of freedom. Every journey, whether pursuing speed or exploring uncharted roads, holds equal value. Cycling embodies the most accessible adventure, serving as a gateway for everyone, embodying the spirit that MONOCHROME represents.

A Personal Challenge

The founder, Kiyoshi Tabuchin, exemplifies this philosophy by participating in one of Japan's largest road races, the Tour de Okinawa 140km Open, on the same day of the launch. Tabuchin states, “My goal is to win. It won’t be easy, but I want to reaffirm the 'meaning of riding' with this bike.” For him, this event is not just about unveiling a product but marking the journey of reflecting one's individuality.

Design and Features

MONOCHROME bikes feature a minimalist design that prioritizes functionality. The frames come in two classic colors: Pearl White and Carbon Black, adorned only with the brand logo and a headmark. The simplicity represents the freedom the rider can express through their choice in colors and accessories.
