One week left to take part in CyclingIndustry.News’ annual retail market research
Bike shops, workshops, mobile mechanics and standalone online retailers have one week left to take part in CI.N’s 2023 retail market research, the report from which participants gain by way of thanks for sharing views. To take part, simply head here ( We ask that only UK-based indie businesses provide feedback)
The retail study provides bike retail business with a unique opportunity to anonymously provide feedback to suppliers on a range of pressing subjects, benchmark their businesses against others in the market, better understand the overriding trends at retail and, with all the data in hand, provides a tool to develop trade, or motivate staff into the year ahead.
On top of gaining the insight straight to your inbox later in Q1, those taking part will automatically be entered into a series of prize draws, the prizes from which are as follows:
- A two night stay at The Mariners Hotel in Lyme Regis, courtesy of CyclingIndustry.News
- For every 50th participant we have a set of Exposure Boost DB+ and Boost-R ReAKT lights, each set valued at £135
- A pair of Fizik Tempo Artica R5 GTX Winter boots, courtesy of Extra UK
- A Fizik Argo Adaptive saddle, courtesy of Extra UK
- A pair of Pirelli P Zero Race TLR tyres, again courtesy of Extra UK
- £200 credit to spend on any Forme bike with Moore Large
- A further prize TBA
CI.N Editor Mark Sutton says of the incoming research: “Aside from informing the content we at CI.N produce, this annual reporting is viewed by suppliers into the frontline as key feedback that helps shape the supplier to retailer relationship. Now in its fifth year, this research is unique in the marketplace in the broad range of subjects explored; that’s everything from the salary patterns of shops staff, which brands are having success gaining share and in which segments, right through to exploring the shifting patterns of stock and service area allocation on the shop floor. In a marketplace that has its challenges it makes good sense to be informed on the market’s trajectory and where your business sits in the broadening mix of retail businesses. My thanks to everybody who takes the ten minutes required to participate.”
