DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (April 13, 2022) – Progressive American Flat Track is pleased to announce that Öhlins USA will be the Official Suspension of Progressive AFT for a seventh successive season in 2022.

The iconic brand added to its long and illustrious championship-winning history in 2021 with reigning Mission SuperTwins presented by S&S Cycle champion Jared Mees. Mees’ historic success helped further demonstrate the benefits of Öhlins continuous development of its range of suspension platforms specifically tailored to the unique demands of professional flat track racing.

“Racing is our passion, and Progressive American Flat Track represents the pinnacle of motorcycle dirt track racing in the world, so we’re excited to continue our partnership,” Mike Himmelsbach, Motorsports Market Manager at Öhlins USA. “Winning races and championships is just part of our story at Öhlins USA. What we’re most proud of is taking that knowledge gained from our successes in competition and leveraging it to create a superior product to create a better riding experience for everyone, including the fans of this great sport.”

The Swedish suspension manufacturer was founded nearly a half-century ago and has been a world champion nearly as long. For decades, Öhlins has stood as a dominant force on the global racing scene, racking up more than 300 world championships across MotoGP, WorldSBK, MXGP, World Rally Championship, and many more.

“Öhlins is one of the most widely respected names in all of motorsport,” said Gene Crouch, COO of Progressive American Flat Track. “Their dedication and depth of knowledge have further raised the bar of competition in Progressive AFT.”

Öhlins USA will again provide fans the opportunity to get an up-close look at its signature gold product lines at select Progressive AFT events in ‘22. For more on Öhlins USA and the Flat Track Series packages, visit www.ohlinsusa.com.
