(Chicago, Illinois – February 2, 2007) – Team Kenda Tire is pleased to announce that Purple Extreme has agreed to sponsor our team again for the 2007 racing season as exclusive supplier of chain lubricant.

The team’s extensive National Racing Calendar (NRC), as well as regional and off-road racing schedule, warrants a product with four-season performance and reliability. As the product name implies, we have found Purple Extreme unrivaled in extreme conditions.

Corie Berrigan, a winner of multiple road races and current Illinois State Cyclocross Champion, added that “Purple Extreme keeps my drive train quiet, clean & protected on the road or trails in any season.”

Paul Forsythe, Team Director, equally excited about the sponsorship, stated that, “It is a godsend product for race mechanics. I have supported entire stage races without any concern for cleaning or lubing chains.”

Compared to other products used in the past, team member Melissa Cover summarized it nicely by saying “Purple Extreme works great and smells good too!”
