This Bicycle Is A Real Stretch


Concord, ON July 8, 2004 -- Giatex Bicycles Inc. is proud to introduce the world's first stretching bicycle. Compresses to fit in the trunk of most cars in seconds with no tools required. Yet, when expanded, you enjoy a full-size bicycle ride. Giatex stretches to fit the size of the rider for the ultimate in riding comfort. Its sporty good looks and unique design will be sure to turn heads wherever you ride. Best of all, Giatex bicycles are priced right to fit any budget.

Giatex's mission is to revolutionize the folding bicycle industry. While folding bicycles are not a new concept, they have been, for the most part, a niche product. This is because typical folding bicycles are either priced way out of the budget of the average consumer or cheaply built with suspect reliability and few features. Giatex now brings state of the art technology in bicycle portability at a price that everyone can afford. Best of all, Giatex bicycles are fun to ride.

Stretching is better! Giatex is out to change the way we think about folding bicycles. That's because the Giatex bicycle is not a folding bicycle but rather a stretching bicycle. At Giatex, we think it's time to move away from folding bicycle technology nearly a century old and start the new millennium with fresh thinking and a better design.

Stretching is better because the frame length can be adjusted (stretched) to the rider's desired length for the ultimate in riding comfort. So versatile that mom, pop or guest can even ride the same bicycle and it's ideal for kids because the bicycle will stretch as the child grows. Stretching is better because the strength/integrity of the frame isn't compromised which provides for a solid ride. Stretching is better because there is no high horizontal bar to negotiate making it easy to mount and dismount. Stretching is better because the Giatex bicycle typically costs way less than your average folder. And as the world's only stretching bicycle, Giatex can draw a crowd with its unique design and sporty good looks. It's sporty. It's portable. It's sportable.

Giatex is ideal for commuters because the compressed bicycle is small and light enough to be carried on a bus, train or subway and can be easily stored in your office. For people who live in apartments/condos/dormitories, Giatex is the answer when storage is an issue. Your Giatex can be easily stored in a closet or bedroom and negotiating doors, stairs, elevators and narrow hallways no longer pose a problem. Homeowners can eliminate garage clutter by storing their Giatex in a closet, storage room, bedroom or just about anywhere. The Giatex can fit into the trunk of most cars or the back of an RV eliminating the need for a roof rack. No roof rack means your Giatex won't get tampered with, stolen, weather beaten or damaged from low clearance bridges or garages. And the Giatex stretching bicycle is even well suited for boat owners too.

Giatex stretching bicycles are available in 14", 16" and 20" wheel sizes and single speed, 5-speed and 6-speed models. Standard features include front and rear V-brakes (16" and 20" models only), Shimano derailleur, kickstand, 2-tone comfort saddle, bell, full set of reflectors and folding pedals. Options available are handy rear carrier, high-rise handlebars, soft carrying bag and strap and various saddles. Suggested list price is as low as $289 US.
