GBI 2.0 Story


Global Bike Inc.

Nearly 20 years ago, our founders designed their first bikes out of necessitythey had races to win and the bikes that were available at the time did not perform to their extremely high standards. So, they took matters into their own hands and built legendary bikes that would outlast and outperform the competition.
