Mondeos are made in Germany aren't they?
Only things missing for me are:
A "quality wris****ch", I've got a couple of very nice Nixons, but I don't think they count.
A job in "playing Angry Birds" / forum browsing.
A Halifax filing cabinet.
😉
A few niches missing from the poll. Bean to cup machine, SS, Fat or CX bike, and as said it should be a Soul or 5.

I don't give a toss about the rest but the 'work in IT' one has always wound me up. Glad to see it's finally been laid to rest as complete nonsense. Try again with 'work in the health service' for a much higher mark.
"laid to rest"? Hardly.
Have a think about all the people you know. I'd guess that at least half of them are parents (if anything the poll seems to under-represent these)
A substantial number of them will use glasses for reading, distance or just for cycling (so a high number not exactly unexpected).
34% with a "quality" wris****ch? That's way above what I experience day-to-day so does indicate some sort of niche.
28% with a beard? Even assuming right up front that this is a male-dominated site, that's got to be higher than in the general population. Maybe many (like me) are doing a seasonal beard?
Wood burning stove - 25%!! Really? Most of the folk I know don't live in houses big enough for one.
Job in IT. 23%. Do you reckon that's fairly standard across the general population? Think of all those shops, hotels, restaurants, bars. Think of folk in public transport, think of the number of folk in the NHS etc. 23% is way, way higher than you might expect.
Just the stove for me, when the council decided to refit their (my house) housing stock with an air source heating/hot water system and radiators they removed existing open fires and bricked up the fireplaces so I promptly knocked mine back out, lined the chimney and fitted a multi-fuel stove as I have an unlimited supply of seasoned wood, I saw no reason to pay for heating when I get it for free (as long as the stove is on that is).
genuinely surprised that neither 'sciatica' or 'periumbilical hernia' made it into the top 10
Someone started a thread on here a while ago. 'What's your job'. The vast majority of people who responded were in the health service.
Of course, outside of that run a survey online and the vast majority of people who will see and respond will be people who work in IT, you know, what with them being online 100% of the time and everything. I know what the reality is (I don't work in IT any more), the stereotype is ridiculous and inaccurate.
If people want to believe it, that's up to them.
The list is missing - disc braked road bike, fat bike, 29er, one other daft bike with weird curly bars that aren't drops, hip flask, good quality tent for biking, cheap rockshox reverb...
I have a child and a german estate vehicle.I once owned a sub5....
That list also needs shedfetishist , of which I have an interest. 😀
7/10 Must Try Harder.
None here.
Glasses- for reading/telly
Wrist watch- Seiko, well its quality to me.
Log burning stove- made a portable one, is that another niche?

Children, Stove, Glasses.
Thought there might have been a cheap-as-you-get casio watch niche too....
Children and watch
Surprised my 26 HT isn't niche anymore (especially with the mega manitou slate forks - pikes, CTD....pah!)
So from the statistics it looks like you have to have a special watch with thousands of miniature dials, this makes you blind. This obviously attracts the female of the species and after which you can own a child 😉
Bet Darwin didn't see that coming.. but then again he had a beard 😉
I dry my shoes outside in the sun under a roof overhang.
I see we've moved on.
Missed this first time around but lets give it a go:
Children - Yes x2
Glasses - Yes
Quality wris****ch - if you can count a very first W001 Animal one a quality watch yes. I suspect no though!
Beard - more of overlong, gypsie stubble but yes
Wood burning stove - Yes x2
Job in IT - Yes
German estate car - been there and done that x2. Loaded T5 camper now.
'DE' Razor - No. See above for reference to gypsie facial hair
Orange Five - Yes
