Italian motorcycle company

Garelli Motorcycles is an Italian moped and motorcycle manufacturer. It was founded in 1919 by Adalberto Garelli (10 July 1886 – 13 January 1968).

At age 22, Adalberto Garelli received a degree in engineering and dedicated his work to developing and perfecting the two stroke engine for Fiat. Garelli quit in 1911 due to Fiat's lack of enthusiasm for the two stroke engine. He continued his own engine design between 1911 and 1914 which resulted in the 350 cc split single cylinder engine. Garelli worked for other motorcycle manufacturers from 1914 to 1918 during which time he won a competition organized by the Royal Italian Army to design a motorcycle with which he used his 350 cc split single engine. In 1919, Garelli constructed a 350 cc motorcycle which set a long distance record from Milan to Naples.

After World War II, Garelli concentrated on producing smaller bikes and mopeds for the European market. In the 1970s Garelli produced the Tiger Cross MK 1 which was an off road 2 stroke enduro motorcycle. The Tiger Cross was produced in 1976. The motorcycle was painted black and yellow. In 2019, in the centenary year of the foundation, the brand returned into the market with fully electric products: Ciclone Sic58 and E Bike Ciclone Sic58.
