ABOUT US
MONORAL is an outdoor gear brand established in 2010.
We focus on creating simple, functional products designed to be easily carried by hand.
The concept behind MONORAL was inspired by bicycle touring. The brand’s founder and designer, Sunami, is a longtime mountain biker who has enjoyed everything from camping tours to trail riding on MTBs. MONORAL BIKES was born from this passion.
Drawing on his own experiences, Sunami set out to build a bike that could handle every kind of adventure. He began development in 2017. During his student days, he spent over 100 nights a year on camping tours while also riding in the local mountains—instilling in him a deep appreciation for versatile bikes.
We chose titanium as our core material because we wanted to create bikes that could be lifelong companions—reliable on mountain trails, across continents, and in unforgettable moments. Titanium is not only lightweight and highly durable, but also absorbs shock well and resists rust, making it ideal for touring. You don’t need to worry about scratches during transport or leaving it out in the rain.
With his first prototype, Sunami participated in the Nepal round of the Asian Enduro Series in April 2018. That experience led him to join the ENS Series in Japan, where he connected with fellow riders who later collaborated with him on development.
As an industrial designer, Sunami brings his professional expertise and unique approach to frame design. Working with skilled partner factories, he is dedicated to building high-quality bikes from Asia—making this work his lifelong mission.
