Pacific Bicycle Museum Introduction
Starting from July 13, 2021, the Pacific Cycles Co., Ltd. located in the Xinfeng District of Taoyuan City reopens with an online reservation system and phone reservation system. Known worldwide for its unique products, the Birdy is revered as the king of folding bicycles and has been popular globally for nearly twenty years. The IF MODE has won the German IF Design Gold Award and the Taiwan Excellence Silver Award, and is currently displayed at the National Design Museum in the United States. The Reach has garnered numerous competition trophies. The lightweight CarryMe has traversed dozens of major cities including New York, London, and Paris. Pacific Cycles offers a wide range of products, including tricycles for rehabilitation of cerebral palsy patients, tricycles suitable for entering and exiting elevators, side cars, stair-climbing bikes, rowing bikes, and four-wheelers for two riders. There is even an armored tricycle donated by the United Nations for use by people in mine-affected areas of Ethiopia. Pacific Cycles provides a research and development platform to assist design elites from various countries in developing products and starting businesses. Many models of folding bikes, tricycles, and mountain bikes in the market are produced by Pacific Cycles. The Pacific Cycles Museum houses over 200 living bicycles, representing a snapshot of contemporary bicycle technology rather than antique bicycles from a century ago. Each year, thousands of domestic and international visitors come to explore. To properly preserve these valuable historical artifacts and to serve educational and inspirational functions, the company took the opportunity of its 30th anniversary in 2010 to repurpose its original office building as a museum, gradually organizing the development history of its products. Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the well-known domestic bicycle manufacturer Pacific Cycles established the Pacific Cycles Museum, which officially opened in September 2014. The museum is not focused on collecting antique bicycles, but rather showcases a representation of contemporary bicycle technology; thus, it includes the history of global bicycle technology development along with many precious bicycle collectibles and replicas. The most popular "Experience Zone" allows visitors to test ride many of Pacific Cycles' hottest models.
