Gt Pantera on Walmart +

Saw a GT Pantera on sale on Walmart + website. Is Gt going to sell its bikes through Walmart now?

You mean, is Dorel Industries going to start selling GT bikes in Walmart?

Well they are selling it for $895, so ii’s not just a re-badged Mongoose.

Dorel markets its sports products under the brand names of Cannondale, Schwinn, Mongoose, Caloi, IronHorse, and GT.

What is 'Walmart +'? That just seems like Target to me...

Anyways, if thats just what their e-retail site is called, selling expensive stuff they dont carry in stores isnt new. Walmart sells a bunch of stuff online that they would never stock in a store.

Walmart + appears to be more like Amazon Prime.

Walmart is trying to compete with Amazon and they sell hundreds (probably thousands) of products you would never see in one of their stores. I don't think it means anything good or bad about the brand.

It is their answer to Disney+, except instead of programming for kids, it is programming created literally by small children in a dungeon in Pyongyang for Wally Mart they also make Viathon bikes and the cans of food for the employee food drives.
