Location & Hours
The A2 Bikes Team
Founder/CEO
AJ
AJ grew up in the Portland suburbs where he met his future wife, just before junior prom. After high school, he headed east to Purdue University to study History. Realizing that he missed the PNW too much, he headed back to Oregon to pursue a Law Degree from Willamette University College of Law.
He's a lifelong learner, so on top of running A2, parenting a growing family, and training for triathlons, he went back to school to pursue an Executive MBA from Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management.
Marketing Wizard
Darren
Darren is a passionate filmmaker and photographer originally from the Bay Area. He loves working with others and telling stories via visual media. He usually has a camera with him at all times.
He graduated from the University of Portland where he studied business marketing. He's also an athlete as well, starting from the world of running - completing 3 marathons in two different countries - and is now exploring the world of road cycling as his next endeavor.
Bike Ninja
Griffin
Griffin hails from Marin County, CA where he gained his passion for bikes starting in the early 90s. Raised in the birthplace of mountain biking, he started working in bike shops around 1999, just a grom at first but quickly leveling up to a full-fledged mechanic.
He is a huge fan of all aspects of custom high-end bike building, and has owned roughly 100 bikes during his 25-year career as a bike mechanic. He's constantly thinking about his next build, and always looking for ways to make his bikes lighter and more custom.
