Ἐκλεκτός Eklektos
eh-KLEK-tos. Greek for "chosen."
Cycling asks for effort, patience, and heart. The kit you ride in should be held to the same standard.
Every Eklektos piece is designed with an end goal in mind. Every cut, seam, and logo placement is a decision. We release in small drops, so every piece has a reason to exist.
Being fast loses its flavor when you don't feel fast.

Why I started Eklektos
I started Eklektos because I wanted kit that made me as excited to go out on a ride as my bike does. Too much of what I found was uninspiring to look at or not comfortable enough, so I set out to make pieces with modern design, high quality, and comfort that compete with the best in the industry.
