Are you influenced by sponsorship ? – Page 2 – Bike Forum

I'm thinking of various types of sponsorship here, so this is more than one question. On the one hand, there's direct sponsorship by manufacturers. So, if you're thinking of buying a down hill bike and Steve Peat wins the World Championship on a Santa Cruz, would you be more likely to buy a Santa Cruz your self ? Then there's bike related sponsorship. If you enjoyed riding the Marin Rough Ride or Kona Mash Up, would you be more inclined to buy a Marin or Kona ? Would you buy Torq bars because they've got a fast race team ? Finally, there's non-biking specific sponsors. Would you buy Original Source shampoo in preference to any other brand because they sponsor the OS Mountain Mayhem ? Would you buy a Mercedes van because they sponsor Bristol Bike Fest ?

Zulu Eleven the change from Felt to Cervelo has more to do with Vaughters team's contract with Felt coming to an end and Cervelo Test Team going tits up - hence the merger of both teams, than Vaughters wanting the fastest frames
