Its debatable whether its good business for Tandems East or Landshark to request the OP not to discuss this publicly. However, it has nothing to do with the 1st amendment, which only applies to governmental actions to limit speech.
Agreed. I too appreciate Consumer Reports and the work they do but this has nothing to do with free speech. The OP has every right to say what he wants, it just appears that he has chosen not to. The government (thankfully) is not a party to this dispute.
Please, in this instance, a problem with a bike has nothing to do with "the world is going to hell" and the consumer choosing to end his public airing has nothing to do with free speech.
