Cycle Country Introduces Quick Hitch And Hitch-N-Go
SPENCER, Iowa--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Cycle Country Accessories Corp. (AMEX:ATC), the recognized leader in development, sales, marketing, and manufacturing of a variety of products for all terrain vehicles (ATV), garden tractors, and golf carts, today announced two new products as part of its "Powered By Innovation" initiative for 2009.
The patent-pending Quick Hitch targets ''lawn and garden'' type trailers historically using Clevis Pins as the form of hook-up to now be used on any size ''ball hitch''. Quick Hitch technology allows for a simple 'switching out' one for the other. Constructed of rugged 3/16'' steel with an innovative ''lock plate'' the Quick Hitch can even be locked-on with an ordinary padlock. ''Numerous OEM opportunities in the ''tow behind'' category are already opening up simply due to more ball hitches being used on ATV/ UTVs '' states Jeff Tetzlaff, President of Cycle Country.
For moving small watercraft on off-road trails and portages the Hitch-N-Go™ gives new meaning to mobility. Utilizing the patent pending Quick Hitch™ technology, canoes, kayaks, small jon boats and v-hulls strap directly over a set of solid, heavy-duty wheels. The Hitch-N-Go is extremely handy for fishing, hunting and kayaking plus makes moving watercraft around the yard safe and easy. The wheels and tow bar fold up for compact storage. "These innovative products reflect that Cycle Country is listening to our customers," states Curt Hill, Cycle Country's new Director of Marketing. "Customers want useful products that make their lives easier, it's as simple as that and that's what these products do."
Both the Quick Hitch and Hitch-N-Go are constructed of rugged powder-coated steel in an attractive Teflon® coated finish. Both products are available immediately.
