Litespeed has been synonymous with technologically progressive frame designs and unmatched tubeset shaping capacity. So much so, in fact, that we were sought for our expertise and commissioned to help NASA develop critical titanium components for the Mars Rover, Curiosity.

Having received the high honor to assist with such a key element in universe exploration continues to inspire our team to press the envelope in designing and building the most technologically progressive performance-driven titanium bikes in the world.

In 2002, Australian Robbie McEwen put the competitive advantages that Litespeed titanium delivers on display for the world to see. Sprinting to an incredible 17 race victories that season—including two stage wins and the green points jersey at the Tour de France—aboard his Litespeed Ultimate, he proved Litespeed’s capacity to create bikes light, stiff, and aero enough to win the biggest races out there. And that doesn’t even account for the many ProTour and one-day classics victories earned on Litespeed bikes, rebadged by other brands.

On the trails, we’ve proven our mettle as well, with bikes light and strong enough to carry Canadian Geoff Kabush to an Olympic appearance in Beijing in 2008 aboard his Ocoee, as well as earn him several cross-country mountain bike national titles. Even deeper into our history, we helped pilot John Tomac to a UCI cross-country world championship crown in 1991 aboard a special titanium/carbon creation.

Off the race course, where the ride is less about competing, and more about time with friends, we’ve developed trail mountain bikes and gravel machines designed for play. Where exploration and fun—as well as that ice-cold post-ride beverage with your pals—are the priority, Litespeed has a ride designed to maximize the fun factor.

Today, riders everywhere are celebrating their own victories, at every level. Despite our pro-level accolades, we’re just as inspired by riders like you, our peers, with whom we share the road and trail. Whether it’s the local stage race, a mountain bike marathon, a gran fondo, a gravel epic or just a weekend café rollout with friends on local roads or trails, our versatile, performance-driven bikes are engineered to deliver pro-level performance.

We’ve maintained our exacting quality and design standards by building a talented team here in Chattanooga, Tennessee—and keeping it intact. The folks who brought our current flagship model—the T1sl—to life, are the same visionaries who designed, developed and produced our original (and some would say legendary) lineup of models.

Over the years, we’ve continued to innovate, using our accumulated knowledge to deliver to you the best ride experience possible… all made in Tennessee*
