    Oakridge Global Energy Commercial Introduction of Lithium-ion Motorcycle Batteries at Daytona Beach Bikefest

    Oakridge Global Energy Solutions (OTCMKTS:OGES) announced the commercial introduction of its groundbreaking Liberty Series lithium ion motorcycle batteries at the 75th anniversary of the iconic Daytona Beach Bikefest.

    Oakridge Global Energy Solutions (OTCMKTS:OGES) announced the commercial introduction of its groundbreaking Liberty Series lithium ion motorcycle batteries at the 75th anniversary of the iconic Daytona Beach Bikefest.  The Daytona Beach Bikefest runs from March 4 through the 14th and Oakridge will be promoting and selling its Liberty Series motorcycle batteries at the Company’s booth at Daytona Beach’s Rossmeyer Harley Davidson right off of highway I-95.
    As quoted in the press release:

    Oakridge’s Liberty Series provides a uniquely “Made-in-the-USA” lithium ion, long-life, high reliability battery solution for all models of the iconic “Made-in-the USA” Harley Davidson, Indian and Victory motorcycles.  These are larger bikes with larger engines that require a powerful battery in order to start.  Historically owners of motorcycles who did not ride at least every 7 to 14 days were forced to purchase a battery trickle charger, or tender, along with somewhat frequent purchases of replacement AGM or Lead Acid batteries, due to their propensity to go flat and not start their bikes.


    In addition, the powerful Oakridge Liberty Series lithium ion batteries remove as much as 17 pounds from the weight of the largest bikes as the Oakridge high-tech lithium batteries are significantly lighter than their lead acid predecessors due to the inherent lightness of lithium, which is the lightest metal in existence with an atomic weight of only 3, whereas lead has an atomic weight more than 27 times heavier.

    Oakridge Global Energy Solutions Executive Chairman and CEO, Steve Barber, stated:

    Our senior management team at Oakridge owns more than 15 American motorbikes here in the US and we all agreed early on that one of our key products would be motorbike batteries because we were all fed up with the standard lead acid batteries always going flat. With my travel schedule over the past 30+ years, I have been a frequent owner of flat batteries when I wanted to have a nice relaxing ride.  We have spent the past 12 months refining and finalizing this product and are excited to announce that we are delivering the Liberty Series product line to the public at the iconic Daytona Beach Bikefest. And the fact that this year is the famous event’s 75thanniversary makes it that much better for us to have the commercial release of the Liberty Series at this year’s Bikefest.
    With the commercial production release of the “Made in USA” Liberty Series batteries, Oakridge is continuing our fundamental mission to onshore manufacturing back to the US and we will continue to introduce new and exciting products.  As avid motorbike enthusiasts, our team at Oakridge is very excited to be commercially shipping our Liberty Series batteries beginning this week. We are also excited to announce that we will also be gradually extending our Liberty Series batteries to all other brands of motorcycles, jet skis, snowmobiles and boats as well.
