Ibis Cycles

Ibis was found­ed in 1981 by Scot ​‘Chuck Ibis’ Nicol, who cut his teeth with the leg­endary Marin coun­ty stal­warts Joe Breeze and Char­lie Cun­ning­ham. After a change of hands and some time off, Scot returned to Ibis in 2003 with a new crew con­sist­ing of Hans Heim (indus­try vet­er­an of Spe­cial­ized, Bon­trager & San­ta Cruz), Tom Mor­gan (Giant, Answer & Titec) and Roxy Lo (indus­tri­al design­er). They have since gone on to cre­ate some of the most cut­ting edge car­bon fibre bicy­cle frames in the world. 2pure and Ibis share a spe­cial bond that is best explained by their Pres­i­dent, Tom Morgan.

“Cal­i­for­nia and Scot­land share many cul­tur­al val­ues, such as the accep­tance of men in skirts. This exchange is a nat­ur­al exten­sion of the ties that already exist.”
