French High-End Mountain Bike Company Relocates To Golden

GOLDEN, CO -- A high-end mountain bike manufacturer with international headquarters in the Pyrenees mountains between Spain and France is moving their US headquarters from Carlsbad, California to Golden.

Commencal, creators of racing mountain bicycles with prices that range into the four-figures, bid farewell to California within three years of bringing their business to the U.S.

"On to Golden..," the company posted on their website. "The gateway to the Rockies offers world class riding and a very passionate MTB culture with small town friendliness where we hope to get involved in the community and laid back lifestyle."

The company will lease 8,550 square feet of space, including a 3,500-sf showroom, at 150 Capital Drive, Suites 160-180 at the northeast corner of C-470 and Interstate 70, according to Colorado Real Estate Journal.

The showroom is set to open this summer.

"Across Colorado there are trails for all appetites thanks to several bike parks and an ever-growing local race scene split between DH and big mountain enduro," the company website said.

"There’s miles and miles of epic single track adventures to be had and we can’t wait to discover more around our new home. It’s the perfect training ground for all of our athletes to come together."

"Our new place offers a central shipping location and we’re hoping that visitors to our showroom will play a big part in the success of our fresh location. Everyone who would like to talk mountain bikes is welcome, come see us," the company said in a statement.
