How not to sell bikes

Got a call from a fellow benter working in the media world that recently got bent. he called to say
that he had just gotten a loaner/demo SWB from a manufactor that we all know and he was loaning the
bike out for people to demo.Great idea huh? Well I was offered the bike for a couple of days but I
declined. However I did go by to do a brief test ride and check the bike out. The bike was a talk of
the town bike just like the aero is at the moment. At a near 3 grand price tag this bike was nice
when new. This bike was about a year old and had some problems. It seems like the people that demoed
the bike had a bad experience with the bike due to broken and or wore out componets. So if your a
manufactor that ships out bikes for demo's for future sales make sure you send one thats not slap
pass wore out.
