Eibar, the historic heart of the gunsmith&#8217;s business, was transformed into the nerve centre of bicycle manufacturing. Orbea joined companies such as BH, which had begun this transition in 1923. The company divided its activities: Orbea y Compa\u00f1ia, based in Eibar, concentrated on bicycles, while Hijos de Orbea, in Vitoria\/Gasteiz, continued to produce cartridges.<\/p>\n<p>This period also saw the rise of cycling in the region. In 1910, Eibar organised its first race, Eibar-Elgoibar-Eibar, 25 years before the Tour of Spain was created.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div

Eibar, the historic heart of the gunsmith&#8217;s business, was transformed into the nerve centre of bicycle manufacturing. Orbea joined companies such as BH, which had begun this transition in 1923. The company divided its activities: Orbea y Compa\u00f1ia, based in Eibar, concentrated on bicycles, while Hijos de Orbea, in Vitoria\/Gasteiz, continued to produce cartridges.<\/p>\n<p>This period also saw the rise of cycling in the region. In 1910, Eibar organised its first race, Eibar-Elgoibar-Eibar, 25 years before the Tour of Spain was created.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2221c211 e-con-full margen-arriba e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2221c211\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-653e6618 nore elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"653e6618\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1449\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-7992\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-1024x618.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-768x464.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-1536x927.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-2048x1236.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hemendik-orbea-bizikleta-hirian-920x555.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31eac3d2 entrada margen-arriba e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"31eac3d2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54681b07 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"54681b07\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>&#8220;This period also saw the rise of cycling in the region.\u201d<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f4e9825 entrada margen-arriba e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3f4e9825\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46b50656 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"46b50656\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>The cooperative, a new start<\/strong><br \/>Despite its initial success, Orbea went through a crisis in the 1960s.
