Who We Are
Dirt Bikes USA is a small company based out of Carbondale, Colorado. We sell our own brand of off-road motorcycles.

Dirt Bikes USA was founded in 1993 by Carl Schmidt and Steven McFadden. Both Carl and Steven were experienced bikers with engineering backgrounds and they became very interested in the growing market of dirt bikes used for recreational purposes. They developed frames for dirt bikes that were more suited to off-road handling and started using these frames to build their own dirt bike models using motorcycle engines manufactured by other companies, such as Honda and Rotax Motors of Austria. Riding on one of their customized dirt bikes, Steven finished first in the famous Barstow to Las Vegas race. There was so much interest in Carl and Steve’s bikes that they decided to open a production facility that could manufacture large numbers of their dirt bikes for the retail market. They opened a small production facility in Carbondale which has since expanded to house 120 workers involved in production, design, and engineering and a corporate sales and administrative staff of close to 20 employees. Over the years Dirt Bikes USA has enhanced and expanded its product line to include dirt bike models optimized for racing and for off-road recreational use. Its racing models have placed well-and often placed first-- in the many dirt bike races staged throughout the United States, including the Barstow-Las Vegas race and competitions at Daytona Bike Week.
Carl currently serves as the C.E.O. and Steven is the President and Chief Operating Officer. There are about 120 employees who work in design, engineering and production, including 3 full-time product designers and engineers. Dirt Bikes USA remains a privately owned company of less than 150 people.The company maintains a very friendly family atmosphere, encouraging teamwork, attention to detail and quality, and continual learning and innovation. Employees, distributors, and retail customers are urged to contribute ideas on how to improve Dirt Bikes’ products and service.
