Pursuit Cycles, an award-winning U.S. custom carbon manufacturer, is closing the chapter on its bicycle frame production. With founder and master framebuilder Carl Strong retiring, the company has announced a transition toward advanced composites research in collaboration with Montana State University.
Pursuit Cycles was founded in 2016 by Strong, well-known for his steel and titanium bicycles under the Strong Frames banner, and three other partners. With three of the four partners possessing engineering backgrounds, Pursuit Cycles has a distinct engineering focus, and the ethos of the company was strongly rooted in a practical, functional approach to making high-performance, U.S.-made monocoque carbon bicycles.
