About Mountain Mods

From the Mountain Mods website:
Mountain Mods was established in June of 2003. The birth of Mountain Mods coincided with the unveiling of the first revision of the U2-UFO chassis. Mountain Mods at its birth produced only one single item - The U2-UFO brushed aluminum with Original Top. Shortly thereafter the Big Window and Solid Top versions were released as well as the smaller Twice7 version. In 2004 Mountain Mods filed for Patent Protection of the U2-UFO and Twice7. In 2006 the United States Patent and Trademark Office ratified the patent. While maintaining the overall design quality the U2-UFO has undergone many transformations. The evolutions are driven mainly by consumer suggestion and the growing knowledge of other manufactured parts and components. The current result of this evolutionary style is a single chassis platform that can be set up in over 15 thousand different configurations. Mountain Mods is different than most quantity based manufacturers. Mountain Mods puts its focus on quality and the continual betterment of its product. Five years later Mountain Mods has gone from 1 to over 200 of its own products manufactured fully in the USA as well as 200 more complimenting parts made by other manufacturers in the market.
