Multiple chances to win Exposure lighting with CI.N’s annual retailer study

As part of a series of incentives available to UK-based bike shops and workshops participating in CI.N’s cycling market research, we are pleased to reveal that every 50th participant will be gifted an Exposure product set that contains Trace and Trace R MK2 Daybright lights.

Worth £85, the UK-made second generation Exposure Daybright lights are designed to provide a front and rear solution for day and night time visibility. The USB charged lights offer six burn times, as well as a pulse pattern for energy saving and daytime visibility. Depending on the mode selected, the battery will run continuously for between 3 and 34 hours.

Launched late in October, the fifth annual Independent Retail Study seeks to once again present the retailer with a chance to deliver anonymised feedback to suppliers, as well as understand where they are positioned in the marketplace relative to other retail businesses. The research will also help our editorial team understand the evolution of the marketplace during Covid-19’s spread and how the business as a whole is performing in the face of new challenges.

Last year, over 250 independent bike shops and workshops kindly participated in the study, with some scooping prizes ranging lights to bikes from our sponsors, as well as receiving the data in full upon completion. This time around our sponsors have again pledged to pitch in goods as a bonus for taking part in the cycling market research, with further incentives to be revealed in the coming weeks.

For many on the frontline the annual report is a tool to assess trends in the retail, servicing and services marketplace, as well as an informative snapshot on best selling brands, products and price points.

The findings, published in a purchasable report every January, also assist investors in the cycling market to make informed decisions based on key performance indicators.

The estimated completion time runs at 10 minutes, with questions largely centred around multiple choice check boxes. Questions not relevant to your business can be skipped.
