Novara is the private label brand of bicycles and bicycle accessories sold by the American consumers’ cooperative REI. The brand was introduced in 1983.[1] Novara bikes are designed in house but are manufactured by Farily Bicycle Manufacturing, a company based in Taiwan; the bicycles are then finished by REI.[2]
The Novara brand is also used for REI's line of cycling clothing[3] and accessories.[4]
