Flxible

Flxible US — Wikipedia page

The Flxible Co. (pronounced "flexible") was an American manufacturer of motorcycle sidecars, funeral cars, ambulances, intercity coaches and transit buses, based in the U.S. state of Ohio.

In 1913, Hugo H. Young and Carl F. Dudte founded the Flexible Side Car Company in Mansfield, Ohio, to manufacture motorcycle sidecars with a flexible mounting to the motorcycle that was designed by Young while he was owning and operating a Harley-Davidson dealership. The flexible mounting allowed the sidecar to lean on corners along with the motorcycle. With growing demand and financial assistance (and leadership) from Charles F. Kettering, a larger plant was opened in Loudonville, Ohio. In 1919, the company dropped the first "E" in "flexible" and changed its name to The Flxible Company so the name could be trademarked.

In 1953, Flxible absorbed the bus-manufacturing portion of the Fageol Twin Coach Company.

In 1964, Flxible purchased Southern Coach Manufacturing Co.

Flxible was sold to Grumman Corporation in 1978 and became known as Grumman Flxible. The name reverted to Flxible when Grumman sold the company in 1983 to General Automotive Corporation.

In 1996, Flxible declared bankruptcy and its assets were auctioned. The last Flxible vehicles were produced in 1995.
