Gillette M3Power Nitro Chopper to be Auctioned on eBay in Support of the National Prostate Cancer Co (Thursday, 09 June 2005) - NEW YORK, NY, (NAMC) - The Gillette Company is offering one lucky person the opportunity to own the Gillette M3Power Nitro Chopper, a one-of-a-kind, custom-made motorcycle created by Orange County Choppers in celebration of Gillette's newest razor, M3Power Nitro. The design and fabrication of the chopper was chronicled on two episodes of Discovery Channel's hit series, "American Chopper." The Gillette M3Power Nitro Chopper auction will run from June 14 through June 24 on eBay. All proceeds from the auction will benefit the National Prostate Cancer Coalition. The Gillette M3Power Nitro Chopper's design - which was inspired by the new razor - is sleek and streamlined, featuring chrome metal work with black and electric green accents. A key feature of the razor, the vibrant green 3-D button that activates the gentle micro-pulses of the shaving cartridge, is positioned prominently on the chopper's rear fender. "This is one of the most unique bikes we've ever built. It has the longest and leanest frame of all of our bikes and the wheels on the Chopper clearly reflect the three-blade system, all of which replicate the look and feel of Gillette's new razor," said Paul Teutul, Jr., Orange County Choppers. "The owner of this bike will enjoy the ride and the experience of owning a customized chopper. We were honored to work on this project with Gillette and are pleased that the money raised will go to the National Prostate Cancer Coalition." The new Gillette M3Power Nitro shaving system combines the revolutionary technology of M3Power with a striking new design that features a black handle with vibrant green accents. The name and the look of M3Power Nitro are inspired bythe sleek design, exhilarating performance and energy of high-performance vehicles. M3Power Nitro is sold at food, drug and mass merchandise stores across the U.S. for a suggested retail price of $10.99. About Gillette Headquartered in Boston, Mass.
