Big Cat was created in 2000 by Paulo Camasmie, a Brazilian Mechanical Engineer. Paulo always dreamed of designing, engineering and manufacturing new quality products to improve people's lives. Big Cat is the fruit of that vision.
The Catrike has received so far 6 awards for the Trike of the Year by the readers of Bent Rider Online. Big Cat has also been elected in 2008 the Manufacturer of the Year under 100 employees by the Manufacturer Association of Central Florida, and in 2009 the Manufacturer of the Year under 125 employees by the Manufacturers Association of Florida.
At Big Cat we focus on product development, engineering and process design. The result are great products that look fantastic, work beautifully and flawlessly, require very low maintenance, are user friendly, and sure to provide many years of fun and pleasure at an affordable price. As a consequence of that, we are making over 2,300 trikes and bikes every year and growing steadily.
Our passion for design & engineering is reflected in our product, which speaks for itself. A good example is the breakthrough design of the Catrike Space Frame, fully triangulated and an impressive relation of strength, stiffness and weight, and its "magic carpet" like ride & handling.
Production is one of our main areas of strength. We make our frames in house in our facilities in Florida using a production system process we developed ourselves. This system is based on lean manufacturing, but adapted and perfected to our needs. We focus on simplicity, reliability, flow and visual controls which makes us a benchmark in manufacturing. We have a great control over quality and an always expanding know how in product design based on the experience of actually making them ourselves. We call our system "Flow Manufacturing" or informally "The Cat way".
The future is bright for Big Cat as we have several new exciting products in our R&D queue, and we have a wonderful team of people working in this company.
Try it for yourself at one of our 140 selected dealers and experience the exhilarating feeling of riding a Catrike or Catbike. (Many shops sells Catrike in Canada).
