bike manufacture websites
Am I the only one that judges bikes by the the pain in the rear, or the ease of the online shopping experience while shopping online for bikes?
Example Trek , specialized, I find shopping them on a phone tiresome. On a computer I would just open multiple browser tabs. But on a phone its click this wait on reload, for geometry. The scroll scroll scroll to go look at components, then more hassle to see other offerings.
To top it off, either trek or specialized copied the other or they hired same company to create their web page.
Anyways I find the lack of ease to navigate manufactures website a turn off from their products in general.
Then there is trek, buy online and they'll ship to my local bike shop, but they push trek store fronts and cut out the small local shops. I don't need a trek bike that badly.... lol
Now Giant brand. I like their website. And generally I like the LBS that carry Giant. So I'm more apt to desire to buy a Giant bike.
