American Motorcycle Manufacturer, Cleveland CycleWerks has made its official debut in India at the ongoing Auto Expo 2018. The company has unveiled two of its 250cc motorcycle segment, the Ace, and the Misfit. While the Ace is available in three versions, the Ace Scrambler 250, the Ace Café 250 and the Ace Deluxe 250, the Misfit is available only in one variant.
All the Ace models, as well as the Misfit, are powered by a 229 cc single cylinder engine that generates 15.4 hp of power at 7,000 rpm and 16 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. While the Ace range is available with a 14 litre fuel tank, the Misfit is offered with a 15 liter tank. The focus of Cleveland CycleWerks is to bring in retro-styled motorcycles with modern technology in them. That said, none of the motorcycles unveiled are available with ABS, even as an option. That is despite the fact that all the models are available with a disc brake setup at both ends.
Cleveland CycleWerks is looking at building a strong partners network in the country by identifying the right dealers in the 12-14 cities to ensure and maintain an exceptional standard of service to its customers in India. By end of this year, the brand aims to grow its family of partners by adding 35 key partners across the country.
