Swiss-based bicycle company by the name of GOrilla Urban Cycling releases their new all-terrain bike the GOAT, and they say it’s specifically designed for “those that want to go everywhere, in every terrain, at any time”. The company specializes in frames and complete bikes for all riders. Their complete bikes focus on a simplistic approach needing very little maintenance.
GOrilla Urban Cycling designs and builds steel frames and complete bikes that they say have “innovative setups and comfortable drive systems for the urban bicycle rider”. The GOAT is manufactured with Columbus Zona tubing and TIG welded in Italy.
The Swiss company seems to have a key focus on the comfort aspect of urban cycling and puts that philosophy into play on all of its bicycles. They use components from many high-end component companies, such as; White Industries, Gilles Berthoud, and MKS Pedals.
They use RAL Colors for the frame finishes, and you can pick and choose how you want your GOAT finished. GOrilla Urban Cycling has a warranty that covers frames for 5 years and parts for 2 years from the original date of purchase… you can read about it here.
