Company History
Apollo supplied a global wave of affordable pit bikes and entry-level dirt machines that lowered barriers to off-road riding. The bikes use proven air-cooled singles, simple carb/EFI setups, and frames that tolerate tip-overs and novice mistakes. Distributors add value with pre-delivery inspection, jetting or map tweaks, and spares kits. Schools and families appreciate that parts—levers, plastics, wheels—are cheap and easy to source, turning practice crashes into learning moments rather than expensive repairs. As quality crept upward—better fasteners, improved looms, stronger hubs—Apollo bikes shifted from throwaway toys to legitimate training tools that can survive seasons of backyard tracks and trail loops.
