Philly Bike Expo

Founded in 2010 by Stephen Bilenky of Bilenky Cycle Works, the Philadelphia Bike Expo has grown into one of North America’s premier gatherings for bicycle artisans, independent frame builders, and cycling culture. Held annually at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in downtown Philadelphia, the two-day event celebrates the craftsmanship, utility, and passion driving the cycling community. It serves as a vital bridge connecting independent fabricators, major equipment component manufacturers, advocacy groups, and everyday cycling enthusiasts under one roof.

At its core, the Expo highlights custom frame building, boutique components, apparel, and innovative cycling accessories, with a strong focus on inclusivity and diversity within the industry. Beyond the extensive exhibition floor, the event features a packed schedule of educational seminars, technical workshops, panel discussions, and kids' activities—covering topics ranging from frame geometry and frame-bag design to urban commuting advocacy and bikepacking routes.
