About Us
Pure Acceleration was established in Tampa, Florida, in 2005 and has gained a reputation of knowledgeable and efficient customer service while at the same time remaining a warm and friendly bike shop.
Pure Acceleration strives to not only provide low prices but also provides an open bay with all of the tools customers would need to install products purchased at the shop.
The owners, Michael and Melanie, along with their partners Geoff and Kristen, took over the company in June of 2008 and have grand visions for the future of the company.
All four have an expansive background in powersports including all aspects of street riding, track riding, dirt riding, water sports, and even fun in the snow!
- Mike started riding dirt bikes at the age of 10 and has been on 2 wheels ever since. Now over 20 years later he is not only still riding daily, but is now a sponsored racer on the CCS circuit. While he may not be one of the top ranked racers he enjoys everything about the sport and tries to get in as many races per year as possible, while still enjoying the perks of everyday street riding.
- Melanie has been riding since she was a teenager and for the first few years she was on the road she used her motorcycle as her only form of transportation while living in South Florida.
She also serves as Mike’s pit hand at the CCS races and other track day functions. - Geoff is an avid motorcycle enthusiast who got his first mini bike when he was seven years old. He has always wanted to be involved in the motorcycle industry and is finally able to do so!
- Kristen is the newest to the motorcycle family, having only been riding since 2000. However, in that time, she has developed a love of the sport and everything that goes with it.
All four partners also enjoy boating and dirt riding when they can find the time.
Pure Acceleration is dedicated to customer service and will always strive to be your first choice for all things powersports!
