Founded in 1977 in Evanston, Illinois, Lee Cougan has been a part of every evolution in mountain biking. In the 1990s, as the sport began to outgrow its American borders, the Stardue Group (which also owns Basso) acquired the distribution rights of Lee Cougan in Europe.

Today, based in Italy, Lee Cougan's aim is to create bikes that allow people to venture and explore, with the knowledge that they have a reliable tool.

In every Lee Cougan there is an invitation to take new paths, to get lost, to discover a little more of the boundless beauty of nature.
