GALOT Motorsports Acquires MVM Products

GALOT Motorsports once again continues to broaden the organization’s horizons. With an implicit focus on strengthening the industry, GALOT Motorsports recently purchased Mike Valerio Motorsports (MVM) Products.

mvm-by-galotMVM was started in 2012 by Mike Valerio and quickly became an industry leader in wheelie bar production and design. Valerio utilized years of R&D and an extensive background in Pro Stock chassis fabrication to develop his unique wheelie bars. Since startup, Valerio has developed one of the most rigid wheelie bars on the market for both dual and single wheel sets. MVM’s proficiency is proven by the large number of Pro Mod teams that have chosen MVM bars.

GALOT Motorsports purchased MVM in October 2016 with the hopes of continuing Valerio’s vision to create a complete line of carbon fiber wheelie bars, including sets for sportsman categories. Mr. Earl Wells and the entire team at GALOT Motorsports see the purchase of MVM as a great opportunity not to reinvent the company, but to aid the company in achieving the next level of success, offering more resources to streamline production and support further R&D.

With this in mind, the company, with a sales office in Clinton, N.C. will continue to use and promote the MVM Products brand. Mike Valerio will remain a vital part of MVM, heading up the company’s R&D program, as well as consulting in part of the production process.

For more information on MVM Products sales and services call Kevin Rivenbark at 910.305.2207 or Mike Valerio at 941.812.0250.
