BMW is complimenting its bicycle collection in spring 2015 with the presentation of a colorful tribute to the BMW M automobiles: a limited special edition BMW Cruise M-Bike. The characteristic Austin Yellow Metallic of the BMW M GmbH was adapted for this edition, which has been limited to 500 exemplars. Each model of the limited edition comes with a specially made plaque and a certificate. The BMW Cruise M-Bike stands out with its modern design and lightweight construction elements. An optical highlight is the so-called "Bullneck" on the top tube in the front frame, which was borrowed from motorcycle design and is reminiscent of the tank position. Its hydro-formed aluminum frame and carbon components make the BMW Cruise M-Bike both light and stable. Despite its low weight, the frame is very rigid, which ensures maximum power transmission at the lowest possible effort. The ergonomic handlebar concept, which is individually adjustable, allows for a comfortable ride, while the hydraulic disc brakes from Shimano guarantee a safe arrival. more A collection for any demand. For over 60 years, BMW has demonstrated its expertise in the development of modern, high-quality bicycles. The current bicycle collection stands for versatility and quality. For children and adolescents, two suitable models are available: the BMW Kids Bike and the BMW Cruise Bike Junior. For lovers of difficult terrain, the BMW All Mountain Bike is the perfect companion. For rides in the city, the BMW Cruise Bike, with its symbiotic interaction between dynamics and functionality, has its advantages. A sporty alternative is The BMW Trekking Bike with its hub dynamo, sturdy luggage rack, and integrated bicycle pump. In addition to the different bicycle models, the BMW bicycle collection offers matching equipment such as helmets, water bottles, bicycle locks, or a practical bike backpack. The BMW Cruise M-Bike Limited Edition is available at selected BMW retailers. The other models in the BMW bicycle collection as well as the matching equipment are additionally available online at shop.bmw.com

Tyre pressure control system (RDC). The tyre pressure control system (RDC) electronically monitors tyre pressure at all four wheels by means of sensors. Depending on model and equipment, the tyre pressure indicator enables current tyre pressure to be monitored in the Control Display or instrument panel. All new BMW automobiles have been fitted with this system as of March 2014. Increased safety The right tyre pressure reduces the risk of tyre damage, thereby increasing safety. Only at the correct pressure does the tyre provide the optimum contact surface on the road, offering excellent performance for a sporty driving style as well as for avoidance or braking manoeuvres. Permanent monitoring If the tyre pressure control system measures a critical deviation in pressure (20% below target or below the minimum pressure of 1.7 bar), it notifies the driver early on of the potential risk by means of a warning signal, as well as providing feedback on the tyre in question via the Control Display or the multifunction instrument display. more Increased efficiency The tyre pressure control system makes for long-term economy: since tyres at the correct pressure generate less rolling resistance, this has a positive impact on fuel consumption. What is more, correct tyre pressure prevents irregular wear and tear, thereby extending the tyre's service life. Original BMW Wheels BMW offers all complete wheel sets including wheels with star marking and fitted with RDC sensors. Your BMW Service Partner will be glad to advise as to whether your automobile is fitted with a tyre pressure control system and which tyres best meet your requirements. In the event of a change of tyres, our experts ensure the tyre pressure control system remains in perfect working order, setting the correct tyre pressure and programming the RDC system accordingly. Tips & Tricks Tyre pressure depends on the temperature of the tyre. If the temperature of the tyre increases, e.g. when driving or due to sunlight exposure, tyre pressure increases, too. A reduction in pressure can occur when the temperature of the tyre drops. In the case of severe reductions in temperature, this can result in a warning being issued due to the set warning limits. For this reason, tyre pressure should be checked at regular intervals at ambient temperature ("cold tyres"). Further information As the driver of a new automobile with a tyre pressure control system, you should take care when you purchase winter tyres to ensure these are fitted with an RDC sensor. Emergency wheels are not fitted with sensors. If an emergency wheel is fitted after a drop in pressure, the warning remains in place until a new wheel is mounted that is fitted with a new sensor as required. The system cannot give previous indication of sudden tyre damage caused by external impact.

Sending you lots of luck and good fortune. Happy St.Patrick
