Custom-chopper builder and rider Paul Teutul, Sr. established Orange
County Choppers as a business in 1999. The shop grew out of Orange
County Ironworks, a steel fabrication enterprise he founded nearly 30
years ago. OCC jumped on the custom-bike scene at Daytona Biketoberfest
1999 with "True Blue," a classic chopper built in the basement of Paul
Sr.'s house. Other signature bikes soon followed, including the “
Spider Bike,” purchased by musician Wyclef Jean of the Fugees, and the
“Jet Bike.” Built to honor U.S. military forces in Afghanistan, the “
Jet Bike” was featured in the original American Chopper that aired on
Discovery Channel in September 2002.
Today, Orange County Choppers has garnered worldwide praise and
recognition for their custom motorcycles. Orange County Choppers is
based in Montgomery, NY and produces 150 bikes annually. For more
