SNEAK PREVIEW OZ499: The end of the countdown reveals the eagerly-awaited website

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 25, 2008 – The website www.oz499.com has been finally released.

The brand new design icon, OZ499, is going to be uncovered in its own peculiar features, playing with a mosaic work of images and texts.

The website raise the curtain on OZ499: a limited edition bike wheel, 500 numbered pieces in the world.  

Reservations are possible only through the website www.oz499.com. Thanks to this reservation, people will be able to choose exactly the wheel numbering they want, knowing that it is going to assume the same value as it would in a piece of art.

Every wheel, being exclusive, is going to be numbered. Each single piece will show its exact weight and will bear the date it was made: it is not manufacturing, it’s creation. A precious union between art and technology. Wheel and carbon as symbols of life and perfection, matter and design.

OZ499,  result of the synergy between OZ – world leader in the field of light alloy wheels – and Carlesso, bike-industry company from Northeastern Italy, is the new generation’s model of hi-tech creations for those who are able to interpret new forms and matters. A unique, unrepeatable occasion recognizable through new languages.

A second countdown has started: only 500 pieces in the world, purchasable just on line,  to come into possession of a unique, one-off art object.
