Ross Bicycles was developed in the 1940’s in Williamsburg, New York and later ended up in Allentown, PA. In the 1980’s the mountain bike market began to explode in the U.S. and Ross was quick to jump on board with their models. They produced all steel bikes welded up in Japan and decked out with some of the hot products at the time. Forty years later, these steel frames are still going strong and make great commuter or gravel bikes.
