BLOG 2010

I wish I would have started this blog years ago. When I first met Johnny G. Or when I was working with Umbert and PK from Cycle Reebok. That was over 15 years ago. After 20 years in the bicycle industry. What I've found over the years is that there just simply isn’t enough time in the day. You do the best you can. So I'm starting the blog now.

Bike Delivery to Seattle Fitness – Seattle Washington

As I type this latest blog entry my team is on its way to Seattle to deliver 20 of the Schwinn AC Performance bikes to Tija at Seattle Fitness. We’ve been paying thousands of dollars over the years to lease our trucks used to deliver and we’ve stuck primarily to the Southern California region for deliveries. Last year we struck a deal with Schwinn/Stairmaster to do the installs for them in California, Arizona and Nevada. So, we’ve had to “up” our game in terms of logistics as we’ve learned the hard way about putting logistics, or at least the final delivery stages in others hands, it can turn out less than optimal. We found that we can do everything related to the build on an optimal level, then put the final piece of the puzzle (The delivery) in someone else’s hands and it dilutes and potentially compromises everything we stand for. So our capabilities have expanded, and so does our customer base. We can now offer white glove personalized delivery to California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Montana. Now we’ve ALWAYS done professional level bike builds that are simply put; unparralled, in terms of the actual build process. While other fitness equipment companies “build” bikes like furniture from IKEA, we do the absolute best builds in the world on indoor bikes and have since the very beginning. When we say “white glove”, we mean your bikes will be delivered by our own personal staff members, people who actually work in my company and will deliver these bikes with the utmost care AND answer any questions you might have in terms of care and maintenance. So, Seattle Fitness is due to receive their bikes within a few hours of this post and we are excited to have them in our stable of satisfied customers!
