Tedd Cycle Acquires Midwest Motorcycle Supply/Ultima
In what is being described as a "powerful union of two industry legends", Newburgh, NY based Tedd Cycle has acquired the all of the assets, names, trademarks and patents of Midwest Motorcycle Supply (formerly of Peverly, MO) including the well-known Ultima Products line of engines, transmissions, front ends and exhausts.
A longstanding cornerstone in the American motorcycle parts industry, Tedd Cycle's acquisition of Midwest, another long-established and storied vendor, merger brings together two iconic brands that have each played a vital role in shaping the custom and aftermarket motorcycle scene for decades.
Founded in the 1960s by industry pioneer Ted Doering, and is still privately owned, "Tedd Cycle became synonymous with top-quality replacement and custom parts for Harley-Davidson motorcycles under its V-Twin Manufacturing brand" Gary Steinhauer from Tedd Cycle, Inc.
"Meanwhile, Midwest Motorcycle Supply, home to the Ultima line, had built a reputation since the 1970s for innovative performance parts, engines, and drivetrains that have powered some of the boldest custom builds on the road.
"Both companies share a rich legacy of serving independent dealers, custom builders, and motorcycle shops across the U.S. and internationally. With deep roots in American manufacturing and distribution, Tedd Cycle and Midwest Motorcycle Supply have long operated with a shared commitment to supporting the backbone of the motorcycle community - the small business owners, customizers, performance specialists, garage builders, and passionate riders who keep the culture alive.
