As a cyclist who does my own maintenance as a hobby, I am pretty willing to pay retail-type prices on exotic hardware that requires less effort on my part and is more reliable on the road.
Not the biggest market, sure, but it's a market where you could very plausibly sell a single fastener for ten-plus dollars with the right marketing.
- noir_lord 12y agoAlso a cyclist, biggest issue I have is getting things to the correct torque as carbon fibre can be a bit of a bugger, I can't recall anything coming lose on my bike in a long time though. I doubt I'd buy a 10 dollar but either but if you marketed it as aero I know some who would ;)
- chii 12y agoi suppose if they market it right, such a boutique style use-case is viable. But i doubt it'd be all _that_ profitable...i m going to guess it's going to be a family style business at best.
