SR Suntour (stylized as SR SUNTOUR) is a Taiwanese[1] manufacturer of bicycle components, formed in 1988 when Osaka based SunTour (Maeda) went bankrupt and was purchased by Sakae Ringyo Company (abbreviated S.R.), a major Japanese maker of aluminum parts, particularly cranks and seat posts. SunTour's sales and commercial success peaked from the late 1970s to the mid-1980s.[2][3][4]

SR Suntour maintains manufacturing in Taiwan and mainland China.[5] Its products range from suspension forks to e-bike components such as motors and battery packs.[6]
