WATERLOO, WI — (MARKET WIRE) — March 19, 2007 — Trek Bicycle Corporation, the country’s premier bicycle manufacturer, is reintroducing millions of Americans to the joy of bike riding with the launch of its new Lime bike. Lime is the ideal bike for the casual rider who wants a fun, convenient and stylish way to run out for a cup of coffee or a breath of fresh air. With its comfortable, upright riding position, automatic transmission and pedal brakes, Lime is designed to ride the way we did as kids — spontaneously, socially and to experience the sheer joy of motion.Hidden technology: Lime features the superior quality and elegant design Trek is famous for, coupled with cutting-edge Coasting™ technology developed by Shimano, the industry leader in bicycle components. While the 3-speed automatic transmission technology is sophisticated, its result is the simplest, easiest bike ride ever. A sensor detects the bike’s speed and sends a message to a computer telling it to shift up or down. The turning of the front wheel generates the energy to operate the computer — there are no batteries. The computer controls the selection of the perfect gear for the bike’s speed and always returns to first gear at a stop. And all of this is hidden from view providing a clean, classic look. Lime is also equipped with pedal brakes; pedal forward and you go, pedal backward and you stop. It doesn’t get any easier than that.
