MILFORD, Iowa, March 9, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Cycle Country Accessories Corp. (AMEX:ATC), the outright leader in developing and manufacturing select custom-fitting accessories for the all-terrain vehicle (ATV) and other diversified industry products, reports their new, patent-pending remote blade angling device was a huge success at the Dealer Expo 2004 industry trade show held February 14th thru the 16th. With a company slogan of 'Work Hard, Play Hard', Cycle Country continually focuses on developing ATV accessories that turn any ATV into a valuable tool for work as well as a great toy for play. By making an ATV so versatile in work and play, the company's commitment to simplifying work and play continues to be the driving force behind the advancement of Cycle Country's leading ATV accessories.
The company expects its new blade angling kit to be received very well among ATV dealers and enthusiasts alike. It is projected to be one of the most sought-after Cycle Country products in quite some time. "We continually challenge ourselves to bring new products to market that add versatility and value that our customers are accustomed to receiving from us," said Mr. Ron Hickman, CEO and President of Cycle Country Accessories. "The overwhelming success the blade angling kit received at the Dealer Expo is just another example of our company's strong tradition of providing quality products that allow ATV owners everywhere to Work Hard and Play Hard."
A.G Edwards & Sons and Standard & Poor's are reporting a projected rise in sales in 2004 for traditional toys. It is believed that baby boomers and the strengthening U.S. economy will support this rise and traditional toys are going to play a major role in the boost to our economy. Cycle Country's accessories should benefit greatly from these types of purchases as its accessories, from snowplow blades to gun racks, revolutionize work and play related projects and provide years of dependable use.
