Moots was founded in 1981 by Kent Eriksen, a pioneer in framebuilding who helped define the American titanium movement.
Originally a steel builder, Moots transitioned to titanium in the early 1990s — a move that cemented its reputation for durability and ride quality.
Every Moots frame is handcrafted in-house in Steamboat Springs by a team of skilled builders, many of whom have decades of experience.
They bend, shape, weld, and polish each frame with obsessive precision — no robots, no assembly lines, no outsourcing.
“Handbuilt in the Rockies, ridden around the world.”
That motto captures what Moots stands for: craftsmanship born from mountains, proven on roads and trails everywhere.
