Introducing the Bicycle Showcase: A place to promote and learn about great bikes
Posted by Jonathan Maus (Publisher/Editor) on May 16th, 2018 at 4:33 pm
We have so many great local bike shops and builders in Portland, and one of our main goals has always been to support them by spreading the word about their business and products.
Today we’re launching a new tool that will take that one step further. We call it the Bicycle Showcase. It’s a paid listing service ($150 per bike) and it’s a simple way for local bike builders and bike shops to spread the word about bikes they have for sale. Similar to our Job Listings, the idea is to get that triple-win we always strive for around here: Help local businesses thrive, support our work, and provide a helpful resource the community.
I personally love visiting bike shops and checking out the latest-and-greatest bikes. My hope is that this new service gives you the information you need to make a good choice about your next bike and/or just gives you an opportunity to ogle something cool during your lunch hour.
Our friends at Joe Bike (SE Lincoln and Cesar Chavez Blvd) jumped at the chance to create the first listing.
Ready to list a bike? The form awaits you. You can view the entire showcase here.
If you have ideas on how we can make this service better, please let me know. I’m here to help.
