Velocity USA Profile
Company Description
Velocity USA is an aluminum bicycle rim manufacturer in Grand Rapids, Michigan.Our mission is to provide wheels, rims, and accessories that allow people to enjoy their bicycle to the fullest extent. To us, that means providing incredibly durable yet performance oriented equipment that can be customized to fit each individual's ride style and taste.
Started in 1989 in Brisbane, Australia, by Tom Black, our first product was an adjustable aluminum water bottle cage called the 'Velocage'. In 1991 we introducted our first aluminum rim, the Aero. From early on, we set ourselves apart by offering a variety of rim drillings, sizes, and colors for the custom wheel builder. In 1998 we began to sell our rims as fully built wheels. After years of perfecting our craft we formed the Wheel Department in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 2011. In 2012 we packed up the Australian factory and moved to Jacksonville, Florida. In 2016 we moved that factory to Grand Rapids.
