Cobra Industries traces its roots back to 1988, when founder Craig Hyde established Cobra Manufacturing. Throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s, the company built a reputation for innovative engineering, developing products that reached markets across the globe. Among its standout creations was a two-tier bicycle parking rack — a design that combined a sleek, forward-thinking look with the practical demands of everyday use. The company also carved out expertise in specialized mechanical engineering solutions for the compressed air industry.
