What exactly are Quest bikes?

Bicycles Asked on February 24, 2021

My wife has about 10-15 years old, but very rarely used (thus in quite good condition) bike with a large “Quest” label in place, where all other bikes has its brand name.

By reading all the labels on that bike, I managed to read this:

Quest Courage, 20 inch, 21 level Shimano, Quest Courier

Not much, but I thought, that using Google etc. this will allow me to learn more about these bikes. However, when I tried to search the Internet, I found very little toward nothing. All I found was this site, but it seems to be about completely different product.

On some old forum there was a post claiming, that this is a marketing name for Dick’s Sporting Goods, but searching this site for Quest name brought no results around bikes.

I also read a few claims, that this is a very, very low-end and very low quality line of products. Some even said, that if you plan to ride more than 10 miles on road or take this bike off-road then you should definitely forget about “Quest” line.

All these claims seems to be contrary to what I have and to what many bicycle repair shops claimed about my wife’s bike (saying, that it looks like a good quality and in good condition, taking its age).

Can someone shed a light, what exactly is this brand? Is it still in production or when it was produced, if it is off market right know? Is there any website or support or anything?

One Answer

Quest was sold by Oshmans sporting goods in the 90s with mid range cro-moly frames and Shimano components.
