Fort Frames, sro was formed in 1992 by a group of young bike enthusiasts, all recent engineering grads. This was about the same time as the Soviet empire crumbled, prompting a surge of new business enterprises throughout Eastern Europe. 4-time Czech National cross country champion, Radovan Fort's, name was adopted for the brand.
While Eastern Europe languished in obscurity during the Soviet years, and manufacturing in those countries often left much to be desired, cycling and bike racing was always a passion. Strong riders emerging from Kazakstan, Russia, Lithuania, East Germany, the Czech Republic, etc, were nurtured in a culture that idolized cycling heroes. This whole region underwent and is still undergoing an amazing technological and economic renaissance, in which companies--such as Fort Frames--are busily making a name for themselves. Currently, Fort Frames has almost 30 employees and builds over 10,000 frames per year, including significant frame production for other European bike brands.

In commemoration of this event, we're offering a VERY limited edition Victor frame. No more than 20 of these will be offered in the US market. It was recently featured in the Press and News section of roadbikereview.com and is going fast. Act quickly if you want to be a part of something very unique!
