tionship in 2025. Alessandro
runs Giocar America, which
launched GBrakes in September
2025 and now makes its own
components with no association
between the two companies.
Galfer opened a new Galfer
USA office located in Orlando,
Florida, in September 2025 to
serve the USA and Canada. The
office operates under the leader-
ship of Armando Riva, general
manager, with support from
Gary Hazel, U.S. sales and tech-
nical manager; Todd Somers,
North American sales manager;
and Ryan Sher, U.S. and Canada
marketing manager. The team
has comprehensive experience
in brake components, power-
sports and cycling, along with
extensive support from the par-
ent company in Spain.
The team has hit the ground
running to build stronger rela-
tionships with North American
distributors, dealers, industry
professionals and end users.
They provide specialized techni-
cal support and advanced train-
ing via the Galfer Academy app.
Having seen the Galfer team's
commitment at the facility
in Spain, along with its close
relationships with some of the
world's top racers, we expect
Galfer to continue to thrive in
North America and around the
world.
