Volagi Cycles is an American based company that manufactures bicycles and related components. Founded in 2010 by two bicycle industry designers, Robert Choi and Barley Forsman, Volagi has six international distributors, as well as eighty bicycle dealers in the United States.[1]

Volagi (vol∙a∙jee) is derived from Latin, meaning "The Will to Go".

History

Originally based in Cotati, California, Volagi was founded in 2010 by Robert Choi and Barley Forsman, both former employees of Specialized Bicycle Components and CamelBak. In 2012 the company was sued by Specialized Bicycle Components. Specialized lost on all accounts except one, and was subsequently awarded one dollar in damages.[2][3]

Volagi sponsored athletes such as Chris Ragsdale, compete in ultra-cycling events such as Race Across America.[4]
