Sorry, my cell phone was broke so no pics, however just a few of the highlights from yesterdays Chicago Area Bicycle Dealers Show. Products we like due to value and quality that we love to offer to our customers.
Untapped - fine makers of on the go fuel food made from pure Vermont maple syrup - limited edition Bourbon barrel aged maple syrup fuel packs - yummy.
Saris Racks - Madison Wisconsin based bike rack company increased their US mfg capabilities and introduced some really nice new racks that will carry your bike securely and in style.
Giant, Jamis and Reid bikes & e-bikes - new and revamped models that offer great looking bikes that are fun and really dependable .
SE Racing - leading the pack again with fun bikes for kids of all ages. Excited to carrying this iconic BMX brand.
Knipex - Quality German made tools, their adjustable wrenches are game changers.
NICA - A national youth mountain bike racing program getting developed here in Illinois that will utilize some of our locally built trails.
Running into industry friends, sharing a word or just a smile and a nod, it was great to see most everyone looking generally excited for the potential of a great season. Hope you all are too!
Weather is going to start changing folks, just saying...you might get your bike in for service sooner than later to avoid the Spring rush. See you soon!
Jeff and the MSB crew
