Sale of Internet Domain MuscleBikes.com a First for Bicycle & Motorcycle Industry

Austin, TX, October 14, 2011 --(PR.com)-- MuscleBikes.com, an internet brand and domain name once marketed by Steed Motorcycle Company, Scottsdale, Arizona, is now available for acquisition, marking the first time ever that the domain will become re-available to the public since its original registration in 1998. The present owner of MuscleBikes.com, having moved on from the motorcycle business in 2006, has since retained the domain name where the former company website still resides. The sale of MuscleBikes.com is being handled by domain broker Mike Curving of TopShelfNames.com.

Muscle Bikes are a growing market segment within the motorcycle and bicycle industries. In the motorcycle industry, muscle bike refers to a motorcycle type derived from either a standard or sport bike design that puts a disproportionately high priority on engine power. In the bicycle industry, muscle bike refers to a type of custom bike styled after dragsters and muscle cars from the mid 60's to early 70's. Both are becoming increasingly popular among enthusiasts.

According to internet marketing studies, consumers tend to naturally associate use of a pure generic keyword.com domain name and brand leadership within an associated market, making MuscleBikes.com a valuable strategic asset for companies looking to enter or expand in this space.
