BH Bikes – Made In Spain! 2009 marks the 100th year of bicycle production for BH (Beistegui Hermanos or Beistegui Brothers). In 1909 the company began making bicycles using its metal forming know-how learned making guns in the small Basque town of Eibar in the mountains of Northern Spain. Cycling in Northern Spain was, and still is, a sport for hard men who can suffer the steep climbs of the Pyrenees and have the fortitude and skill to bomb down the same mountains with grace and skill.

Orbea Bicycles – The beginnings of Orbea reach deeper into history than nearly any other bicycle manufacturer, to 1847 when the Orbea brothers began their metal tubing business in the Basque region of northern Spain. In 1930, the brothers narrowed their focus to making bicycles, a natural progression given that cycling is an integral part of the lives of the Basque people. This area (approximately the size of New Hampshire) supports more than 1500 cycling clubs and has 150 riders competing in the European pro peloton. Read More, Visit Orbea Bicycles >>>
