History
Eddie Trotta originally started a business called Thunder Road Salloon in the late 80's. He had been building bikes since his early teens back in his hometown in Connecticut, and decided to build one and display it in the salloon. Soon after, his customers would pester him to sell the display bike. So he thought why not build bikes full time. Thunder Cycle designs Inc was born in 1991, and Eddie Trotta has never looked back. We were featured on Discovery Channel's Bike Build Off T.V. series, and went undefeated against the best builders in the industry. After that we had a show for 2 seasons on Speedvision's V-Twin T.V. with host Michelle Smith. Since then we've stayed extremely busy catering to our ultra highend clientele building amazing one of a kind custom choppers and Harley Davidson Baggers.
