Derbi

Wikipedia

Derbi is a brand of motorcycles, scooters, and recreational ATVs (quads) produced by Nacional Motor S.A.U., a Spanish subsidiary of Piaggio & Co. SpA.

History

Derbi's origins began with a little bicycle workshop in the village of Mollet near Barcelona, founded in 1922 by Simón Rabasa i Singla

The focus remained the repair and hire of bicycles until May 1944 when Singla formed a

limited liability company named Bicicletas Rabas with the aim of moving into manufacturing bicycles.

The venture proved very successful and in 1946, supported by its profits, work began on a motorised version.

More moped than motorcycle, this first model, the 48cc SRS included plunger rear suspension, and a motorcycle type gas tank and exhaust system.

The SRS proved so successful it prompted a change in the companies direction, and on November 7, 1950, the company changed its name to the Nacional Motor SA.More Derbi @ wikipedia
