MONTRÉAL, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Rocky Mountain, an iconic Canadian mountain bike brand, is entering a new chapter in its history as the company transitions to a new group of four Canadian investors, Chaos Sports Inc.

Rooted in the Past, Focused on the Trail Ahead

This transition is for everyone who's helped shape Rocky Mountain's story-from weekend warriors and curious newcomers to seasoned racers and trail builders.

Born from the trails and driven by a passion for the sport, Rocky Mountain will remain deeply rooted in British Columbia, where it all began. To that end, our research and development activities will resume in North Vancouver, a cornerstone of cycling culture that continues to inspire the company's vision today.

A Seasoned Team to Carry the Love the Ride Spirit Forward

The new ownership team brings diverse expertise, a shared love for cycling and the outdoors, and a clear commitment to growing Rocky Mountain while staying true to its DNA. Three of the new owners are also behind Maui Bikes, a Québec-based company specializing in electric bikes – reflecting their active engagement in the industry and deep understanding of today's riders.

  • Jonathan Bourgeois, co-founder of Raccoon Skis and partner at Maui Bikes, brings hands-on experience, an innovative mindset, and a deep connection to outdoor culture.
  • Christian Thibert, President of Thibert Inc. – a North American leader in distribution – brings a focus on innovation, customer service excellence, and strategic partnerships. His long-term vision is aligned with Rocky Mountain's repositioning efforts.
  • Patrick St-Denis, with a background at Oakley and The North Face, offers keen consumer insight and strong expertise in brand strategy.
  • Jean-François Grenache, a marketing and business development specialist, is known for revitalizing brands in complex market environments.

"Rocky Mountain is more than just a name-it's a mindset, a culture, a way of experiencing the ride. We're stepping in with humility, energy, and determination. Our goal is clear: to honour what has made Rocky strong for over 40 years and to open a new chapter of growth," says Patrick St-Denis, spokesperson for the group.

Service Continuity and Warranty Support

The 2025–2026 period will mark a strategic relaunch, with the ambition of establishing Rocky Mountain as a global leader in mountain biking. The new owners are committed to upholding the highest standards of quality, service, and support. In the short term, business operations, customer service, after-sales support, and partner commitments will continue as usual. All warranties offered by Rocky Mountain in recent years will be fully honoured. Bike parts and components will remain available.
