About DERBI
Derbi manufactures motorcycles as well as mopeds and scooters. The company also builds competitive all-terrain automobiles which are produced by Nacional Motor SAU. This is an ancillary of Piaggio & Co. SpA. Derbi derived its name from the Catalan phrase Derivats de Bicicletes which translates to Derivates of Bicycles.
Derbi started out as a bicycle workshop in Molle, a little village located near Barcelona. It was established in 1922 by Simeó Rabasa i Singla. Until 1944, the company’s main business was repairing and hiring bicycles. In May of 1944, Simeó Rabasa created a limited liability company which he called Bicycletas Rabasa. He wanted to manufacture bicycles. This turned out to be a great business move that led the company to immense success.
In 1946, Rabasa used the profits he made to create a motorized version. The first model was the 48cc SRS that was more of a moped than a motorcycle. This model included a plunger rear suspension and a gas tank such as the one found on a motorcycle as well as an exhaust system. It was an enormously successful project that birthed a transition for the company.
On the 7th of November 1950, the company name changed to Nacional Motor SA after introducing its first motorcycle the Barcelona Trade Fair of that summer. The motorcycle was named the Derbi 250.
The company entered its 50cc motorcycles in the Grand Prix Motorcycle Racing championships and emerged victorious in 1969, 1970 and 1972. The 50cc was elevated to an 80cc displacement in 1984. It went on to win four consecutive Grand Prix championships from 1986 to 1989. Unfortunately, the 80cc class was discontinued in the GP championships.
Derbi also enjoyed racing success with their 125cc motorcycles in the Grand Prix. They won competitions in 1971, 19972, 1988, 2008 and 2010. With 405 points awarded to the Derbi RSA 125 in the constructor’s championships, the bike was firmly entrenched as one of the best coming second only to the Aprilla’s 2007 410 points.
Derbi successfully transitioned into the new Spanish democracy and entry into the European Community. Derbi’s founder, Rabasa died in 1988. The company remained autonomous until 2001 when the Piaggio Group acquired it.
