Motive Products was formed in 1998 when Matt Newman needed to bleed the clutch on his BMW. When he found that there was no effective tool on the market for under $200, the Power Bleeder was born.
Over the last 17 years, the Power Bleeder has been used by racers, enthusiasts, home mechanics, and professional mechanics; men and women, young and old. Many of these people have little or no experience in bleeding brakes. To our great pride, the Power Bleeder has been universally praised as an effective tool that is simple to use.
If you have been doing business with Motive, they appreciate the opportunity to serve you and believe you'll agree that their commitment to produce and support quality tools is unquestionable. If you are considering doing business with them, so invite you to try their products and are confident that you will benefit from the relationship.
In early 2008 Motive Products was purchased by two auto enthusiasts, Eric Leicher, and Marco Romani. One of the first things they did was move Motive Products from Oakland California to Gilroy California. Eric has been a gear head since birth and has an extensive background in rebuilding classic cars and in the automotive parts business. Marco also has been fascinated by all things run by an internal combustion engine since birth and he has a background in club racing and endurance racing along with being a licensed pilot.
Since Motive fateful beginning in a garage in Berkeley, California they continue on their mission to produce effective quality tools at a reasonable price.
