About Bandit9

Bandit9 is a Beijing-based motorcycle company that specializes in the handmade design, engineering and craft of any bike. The name “Bandit9” comes from the idea that bandits, pirates and outlaws are the kings of innovation and individualism.

Our goal is to build motorcycle sculptures that weave performance, art and style. We focus on creating iconic one-of-a-kind motorcycles that are all crafted by hand. Before the build, we interview our potential buyers to better understand them and build a timeless bike that would resonate and connect with them.

Our team of bandits possess 3 key characteristics.

1. A burning passion for motorcycle and art. Yes, we love motorcycles but it is our eye for art and our background in the art industry that allows us to approach building custom bikes differently. We like to think of our bikes as sculptures.
2. For us, “good enough” is never good enough. We have an obsessive attitude towards detail. Imperfections keep us up at night.
3. We pursue “the new” at every possible opportunity. We strive to make the next bike better than the last. Lighter, faster, more efficient, and more unique in design.

Our bikes and our crew have been published in numerous international magazines in New York, Italy, Germany and Spain to name a few. Bandit9 has also been featured in the top motorcycle and design websites such as Hell for Leather Magazine, Pipeburn, Moto Rivista, Moco Loco and the Awesomer.
