I knew Bridgestone as a motorcycle company before tires even. They were know for being fair bikes with really strong running motors. I remember a particularly nasty little minibike called the Cibie that was really crap except it had a Bridgestone 180cc motor that was awesome fast. Dangerously fast. It was much later that I came to understand they also made pretty good bicycles. I wonder what other waters they dipped their toes into?
