　　Longmont, CO - In party of Harley-Davidson's 95th Anniversary, GT Bicycles has actually created a restricted edition bicycle, the Velo Glide Ultra.

　　Production of the Harley-Davidson Velo Glide Ultra is limited to just 1,000 bikes.

　　Under license from Harley-Davidson, GT Bicycles works closely with designers at the bike business. "Capturing the heritage and spirit of Harley-Davidson in a bicycle is quite a difficulty," stated Susan McPherson, Senior Manager, General Merchandise. "The Velo Glide Ultra succeeds in every respect.".

　　Influenced by Harley-Davidson's famous Softail Custom motorbike, the Velo Glide Ultra mixes 1950's beach cruiser looks with state-of-the-art bike technology. Near scale-model fenders and a mock gas tank are highlighted by timeless Harley-Davidson components. Included on that list is a laser-etched air cleaner cover, a fired cloisonne medallion set into the gas tank and handlebar grips made of chrome and rubber. Stock equipment likewise consists of Fat Boy-style saddlebags.

　　The Velo Glide Ultra appears to be a throwback to an earlier age, the technology of its elements recommends it is undoubtedly an item of its time. Shimano Nexus Flip-Fire shifters cause a 7-speed drivetrain housed in the rear center that is essentially maintenance-free. Contributing to the ultra-plush trip is a Rock Shox Jett suspension fork. Trusted braking is offered by Shimano Inter-M Roller Brakes, front and back.

　　"The smooth blending of contemporary technology and timeless design is a trademark of Harley-Davidson," said McPherson. "The Velo Glide Ultra satisfies that requirement.".

　　As the Velo Glide Ultra is a real restricted edition, each of the 1,000 bicycles is assigned its own edition number and provided with a certification of credibility. The head badge accessory will be retired upon completion of the manufacturing run. So, too, will the customized turquoise-and-cream paint scheme that is accentuated by red and gold hand-pinstriping.
