Do you ride our bikes? Want to tell us how great you think our products are? Great, we'd love to hear what a great job we're doing too. We've got a spot for you to let us know how much you enjoy the stuff we make. Bear with me for a quick plug for one of our coolest and most under-utilized web features.
If you'd like to speak up and let people know about your experience, what you're doing with the bike, or any tips for tricking out your ride, hit up our reviews section on each bike page. You can even upload pictures and video! Seriously, who else gives you such a voice? Just go to whatever bike page you'd like to preach about and click the word "Reviews" below the bike picture. Click the words "Write your own review" and you open the line to let us know anything you want to speak up about our product. And believe me, we read these and not just the interns.
It's all about offering you, the consumer, the industry's most robust interactive experience. Or at least that's what Casey, our web marketing guy, tells me.



Hey Hootie
My wife has stability problems from a neurological condition, but needed something to get around to the local stores. She bought a Trek Pure Deluxe trike and thinks it is wonderful. The dealer had to work on fitting it due to her condition, but it works. She was worried what some of the neighbors might think about her on a trike, but at least one more been sold. The local women think it is a great stable platform for shopping.
I'm starting to think about a Soho for my own use and am incredibly stoked that you guys are working with my buddy Colleen on something that will work with her tallness and forty inch inseam.

Hey Steve,
Good call! I think the Trike is becoming a more acceptable bicycle as the years go by. I have a buddy in Milwaukee who's wife is a total Betty and she's bugging him for a trike.
I think as neurological therapy techniques become more and more refined that the bicycle will emerge as a great solution, not only for transportation but for rehabilitation as well. I'm married to an occupational therapist who is currently specializing in neurological development and i keep trying to get her into looking at the bicycle as a potential therapeutic tool. My best to you and yours!
Collen's been awesome to work with, what a fun project. I can't wait to talk it up when more details are available.
