Michael Gamstetter — Costa Mesa, CA
Currently, I am designing a range of bicycle components for Cycle Group, Inc. (CGI) and it's BOX Components and Promax brands. I oversee all design and work with our factories to ensure all products are produced in a timely manner and to our specifications.
I graduated with honors from Art Institute of California, Orange County. I also have a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art. Art and design have been my main interest for as long as I can remember. As a journalist covering the technology-intensive bicycle industry, I wrote about all aspects of manufacturing, design, product development, materials and more. I visited more than 50 factories worldwide and have a strong understanding of manufacturing processes and materials.
