It's time! Applications are now open for the 2025 PBE x SRAM Inclusivity Scholarship for Framebuilders. In 2019, the Philly Bike Expo announced a new framebuilder scholarship program.
The PBE x SRAM Inclusivity Scholarship supports framebuilders who have been underrepresented at bike shows and in the industry at large. Since the project began, 15 framebuilders from diverse backgrounds have had the ability to participate in the Philly Bike Expo without booth, travel or bike build costs. Our goal is to elevate these builders by amplifying their craft and their story. We hope to grow the framebuilding industry by way of others witnessing their talent and experiencing their passion.
Huge thanks to SRAM for taking the lead on this initiative and all the others who have jumped in to contribute and keep the program rolling and growing! Grateful to be a part of an industry that is committed to positive change.
