Serotta, the Brand That Drove Innovation into the Bicycling Industry,
Announces Future Plans
Ben Serotta ramps up research, design and production through new partnership.
SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY (May 9, 2012) - Serotta, one of the world’s premier handcrafted performance bicycle manufacturers, has announced a new partnership that will fast-track the company’s research, design and production. The company has entered into a partnership agreement with Bradway Capital. “Bradway brings us the depth of resources and management expertise that we need to expand our business and bring innovation to the next level,” stated Ben Serotta. “I am excited about the prospects of allowing an experienced management team to run the day-to-day operations while I turn my full focus to building the world’s best bicycles right here in Saratoga Springs, NY.”
Bradway Capital was founded by Brian Case, who currently serves as its managing partner. Case, an avid rider, former shop owner and partner of Fit to Ride, an advanced bicycle fit studio, has been fitting and selling Serotta bicycles since the late ’80s. “There are many cycling enthusiasts at Bradway Capital,” said Case, “and we are thrilled to be part of the Serotta experience, assisting in bringing the next generation of Serotta bikes to market. We are not just partners - we have ridden Serottas for years.”
“This is great news,” stated Chris Jacobson, owner of Sports Garage in Boulder, CO, a Bicycling Magazine Top 100 Shop. “As an active seller of Serotta since 1994, I’ve witnessed the stunning technological and bike/body advancements created and implemented by Ben and his organization. Serotta constructs each and every frame in the United States by the hands of artisans, so that the bike can disappear beneath its rider to reveal the true beauty of cycling.”
