Propel Bikes

Description

• Propels founder, Chris Nolte, has always been passionate about bicycles. Spending his last $100, he purchased 55 used bicycles from a police auction; with intentions of repairing and reselling each bicycle. Still studying computer science in college, Chris began to consider an altogether different career path.At the start of the new millennium, as a way to earn his college tuition, Chris enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserves. His future plans were put on indefinite hold after the September 11th attacks. Having directly participated in transporting fuel in overseas, Chris took it as a personal mission to aid in lessening the United States dependence upon the usage of foreign oil.After suffering a back injury and returning home as a disabled combat veteran, Chris found himself unable to exercise the way he had in the past. Rather than dwell on his misfortune, he decided to search for viable alternatives. It wasnt long before he settled on his first electric-assisted bike. His passion for bicycles was reinvigorated.As a result Long Island Electric Bikes was born. Beginning with only six bikes in a second-floor office in Lindenhurst, NY; quickly evolving into a spacious warehouse with an ever-expanding selection of top quality e-bikes and accessories. Chris relied on his experience as a web marketer to rapidly build his business into one of the nations leading dealers of electric-assisted bicycles.With his business already succeeding and growing, Chris has decided to take the next logical step and open a neighborhood bike shop with an emphasis on high quality products and nothing but the best customer service. Long Island Electric Bikes has advanced into what is now known as Propel. Armed with a conviction that the nation is ready for an electric bike explosion, Chris has taken on a few employees and acquired a storefront on Flushing Ave in Brooklyn. Hes looking forward to taking an active role in developing New Yorks trendsetting cycling community.
