[edit]

Vincent DiMartino and Cody Connelly left Orange County Choppers (of American Chopper fame) to start V-Force Customs in 2007. Cody Connelly was a BOCES student intern.

V-force Customs first build was "V-Force 1", unveiled in Daytona Beach, Florida.[2] Soon after the success of "V-force 1", V-force built a custom chopper for the Tampa Bay Storm Arena League Football team.[3] Vinnie and Cody Connelly announced the build from mid-field at a Storm game at the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, FL. The Tampa Bay Storm chopper was unveiled at The Storms' final game of the season on June 21, 2008. The bike is touring the southeast United States with all proceeds going to the Pinellas County Humane Society and The Shriners Hospital for Children in Tampa. Also in June, V-Force Customs had its ribbon cutting and grand opening in Rock Tavern, NY.
