DELUXE - Ross Bicycles

From Ross Bicycles website:

Ross Bicycle’s started in 1940 when Albert Ross launched “Ross Galvanizing Works.” The company originally made pipes, ammunition boxes, fittings, and galvanizing the U.S Military’s ships for World War II.

When World War II ended, Albert wanted to pursue his passion for cycling and start manufacturing bicycles. He started producing and designing the best bicycles he possibly could. From 1946-1960, all types of wheeled goods and products were manufactured.

Albert’s son, Sherwood Ross, followed in his father's footsteps.

Ross manufactured over 20 million bicycles over the years.

Randy Ross, Sherwood’s son, the 3rd generation of the Ross bicycle family. He had a vision for manufacturing big-wheeled bicycles. The whole cycling industry; including his father Sherwood, thought he was crazy and that big-wheeled bicycles wouldn’t work. 

Ross would introduce the first-ever mass-produced mountain bike. There is always a difference of opinion in the cycling industry about who invented the mountain bike, but there’s one thing that is a fact; Randy Ross and his team at Ross were the first to ever mass-produce the mountain bike. It was in those years, Ross had officially solidified themselves as pioneers and innovators to the sport of Mountain Biking.

Presently, Randy Ross and his son Shaun Ross, the 4th generation of the Ross Bicycles family, along with their investors and bicycle industry veteran staff, have embarked on the path to resurrect the brand ROSS.
