Laguna Beach, CA, January 16, 2012 – The 2012 crankbrothers dreambikes auction is off to an

exciting start. The total raised for Wheels 4 Life is already up to $19,227. For Wheels 4 Life, thatʼs

enough to purchase 192 bikes for people in Third World Countries to use as transportation to

work, to school, or to receive health care. We are already at 38% of our goal to raise $50,000,

and we still have nine beautiful dreambikes that will be auctioned over the next few months.

scott genius lt auction result / Last week we auctioned an ideal bike for all mountain riding, the

SCOTT Genius LT. The bids flowed in to the last second, when the lucky winner walked away

with this incredible bike for $3,200 (estimated value of $5,000). It turned out that the bike was

purchased for Joaquin Balaguer as a surprise by his son and daughter—what a surprise it must

have been! Joaquin is located relatively nearby to crankbrothers, so he came by the design studio

to pick-up his new bike, where Hans Rey and Andrew Herrick (director of crankbrothers) delivered

the dreambike in person. Whenever Joaquin is out on the trails, he should remember that his

dreambike allowed 32 others to get life changing bikes of their own. Incredible.

the next dreambikes auction : tomac supermatic 120 / The next bike available for auction is

the super slick, super carbon, Tomac Supermatic 120. This is a beautiful long travel xc machine.

Check it out at http://crankbrothers.com/dreambikes/tomac-supermatic-120.php.

Remember, 100% of the auction proceeds will go to supporting Wheels 4 Life.

None of this would be possible without the dreambikes partners – Focus, Charge, GT,

Ibis, Rotwild, Scott, Tomac, Turner, SRAM, Rock Shox, Avid, Fizik and Continental Tires.

Thank you for helping us make a difference through Wheels 4 Life.

The Tomac Supermatic 120mm carbon bike is pure beauty combined with ultimate performance.

Its' 120mm of travel is delivered in one of the stiffest packages to date, and it provides massive

pedaling efficiency with bump absorbing abilities. It's been developed and ride tested by the

greatest ever, constructed with the highest end materials, and uses the latest in design and lab

testing techniques. The Supermatic 120 is a serious two-wheeled weapon, and the custom

crankbrothers dreambike build is the icing on the cake.
