FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Minneapolis, Minnesota (January 15, 2010) – The Dero Bike Rack Company, an industry leader in bike parking, has developed an innovative new, two-level bike parking system, the Dero Decker.

By stacking bikes on a two-tiered system, bike parking capacity doubles. Unlike other double decker systems, our lift-assist top trays slide down to just inches from the ground, requiring only minimal lifting of the bike to secure it into the tray. The patent pending Dero Decker has a front wheel safety locking lever and tray dampers to provide safe lowering of upper trays.

Rolf Scholtz, founder of Dero Bike Racks says, “We were really looking to make the Dero Decker the most space efficient two-level bike parking system on the market”.  The vertical load trays effectively reduce the required aisle space, giving the system the smallest footprint of any two level bike parking system available. This efficient use of space is ideal for bike centers, bike rooms and parking garages where space is at a premium.

The Dero Decker is modular and available in single and double-sided configurations.

Nearly 250 people from Minnesota and around the country gathered in Winona, MN for the 2009 TCBC Weekend on Wheels/ League of American Bicyclists National Rally.  With river valleys, rolling hills, farmland, and great climbs, the routes provided spectacular riding. The Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota (BikeMN) provided volunteers at rest stops all weekend and helped in planning the Traffic Skills 101 class held on Friday. Saturday night, Winona was presented with five bike racks donated by Dero on behalf of BikeMN. “Winona is a community well on their way to becoming very bicycle friendly,” said Nick Mason of Dero, “bicycle parking is just one part of the plan.” BikeMN executive director, Dorian Grilley also shared his vision for bicycling in Minnesota. “Together we can give bikes a voice throughout our state and make more communities like Winona possible.”
