Cyclo Toolmakers, Inc. Acquired by RUPES S.p.A.

[Accumulator]

.. I always wondered how many of those units do they sell.

That`s a good Q, especially since they simply *NEVER* wear out. I can`t think of another electric tool I own that`s as durable as the Cyclos.

I have read some of the questions and comments.

In Europe, RUPES SpA is known for more than just high quality tools and innovative solutions. They are a family operated business with a stellar reputation in manufacturing, professional business practices, and customer service. In North America we are committed to building a team that will allow us to carry on our European legacy of excellence and put more Americans to work.

Cyclo Toolmakers was a company that combined family-owned business practice with a passion “to do it right”. I have been in this industry, in various ways, for a while. I have never, as in not once, heard anything but praise for Cyclo’s business practices, customer service or support - not from distributors or consumers. And the tools? I have seen 60-year old examples on Ebay and Craigslist that still perform flawlessly!

So fans of Cyclo rejoice! Cody Sutherland, former owner of Cyclo Toolmakers, is now the VP of Operations for RUPES USA Inc. Anybody who has had a positive experience with Cyclo, which would be everybody I have ever spoken with, will realize what a huge addition this is! Even better, all full-time positions will be retained by the people who deserve them… The team which made Cyclo so successful will now join our family.

RUPES US Inc. will add the Cyclo brand to our North American portfolio. We will continue to sell Cyclo brand products under the Cyclo name.

RUPES S.p.A, the parent company of RUPES USA Inc. is extremely excited about the possibilities for the future in North America and is thrilled to add the iconic Cyclo brand to the RUPES family. Any questions, feel free to ask.

Cyclo is already 15mm. Not quite 21, but still larger than most.

So Cyclo was the original "larger throw" polisher....

The Cyclo already is!!! If we can make it better, we will (carefully). If their engineering can help us improve the BigFoot line, we would be foolish not to take advantage. RUPES offers the BigFoot and Skorpio lines in the US, the Cyclo line will become our third offering.

Correct, to some degree.
