CCM Motorcycles in Administration
CCM Motorcycles, the iconic British brand known for its handcrafted motorcycles, has entered administration. This significant development was confirmed by the company’s parent group, Pitalia Capital, on June 2. Established in 1971, CCM has a storied history in the UK motorcycle industry, but now faces an uncertain future.
Impact of Recent Challenges
The announcement of administration follows a series of challenges for CCM. Managing Director Jason Broome revealed that the workforce had dwindled to just 12 employees by March 2025 due to declining sales. One major factor contributing to this situation was the closure of Completely Motorbikes, one of CCM’s key retail partners, which occurred in October 2025. Such setbacks have left the brand with limited distribution outlets across the UK, forcing them to repurchase unsold inventory.
Hopes for the Brand’s Continuation
The recent news has sparked concern among employees, engineers, and devoted fans of CCM. Despite the bleak moment, there is hope that the brand can navigate through this crisis. The legacy of CCM as a manufacturer of innovative motorcycles needs to be preserved. As supporters rally around the brand, one can only hope that this isn’t the end of the road for CCM Motorcycles. Their past achievements and commitment to quality may yet serve as a foundation for a potential revival.
