Stickers
 
Does it work to write to bike companies and ask for free stickers?

the Pinarello dealer here in Toronto will give you a pinarello sticker, but the manager, will put it personally on your Pinarello bike, so if you don't have pinarello bike, he (owner) will not give you a pinarello sticker, I think they are just safeguarding their name and brand, try writing to the manufacturer, every company may have different policy, and good luck Fubar on your quest.....

I saw on MTB Review where they had free stickers some time ago. I guess they still do. Also RockShox has stickers if you go to the "contacts" page of their site. Haven't checked any other sites but I just happened to see these. Let us know if you find any more. I have some "crash" marks to cover up! :p

I'll let you guys know how it goes. TITEC sent me a cool sticker. RACEFACE is supposed to send me some but its been awhile, so I probably won't get those.
Tomorrow I am going to type up several request letters and send them off to various companies, and see if any of them respond.

Keep us informed about the developement,

Yes... I have sent letters to quite a few companies and gotten free stickers, catalogs, and posters from them. They're pretty easy going when it comes to cheap advertisements.

Ah ha!!! Great!!!! Letters go in the mail tomorrow.

fubar5 06-04-01 12:18 PM

Do you mean click on "Reader Link" ???

Joe Gardner 06-04-01 12:44 PM

Yeah, the reader link page, i requested information from everyone (the very top check box).

fubar5 06-04-01 02:20 PM

Ok, I didn't request stuff from everybody, but most everybody.:D :D :D :D

Joe Gardner 06-05-01 01:10 AM

I think its just me, but i love everything cycling related, i would read everything that i recived in the mail, i kept most of the stuff i have recived, i love looking at all the products, and reading reviews.... fun stuff :)

JonR 06-05-01 02:58 AM

I've taken years-old issues of Bicycling magazine (I used to subscribe to it) and re-read them several times.

fubar5 06-05-01 05:29 AM

Hey joe, when you requested all that stuff did you get a bunch of stuff in your email to? I went and requested info from everybody(the little checkbox at the top) and now I have 171 new messages in my email!!!

Joe Gardner 06-05-01 12:10 PM

Yup :)

AlphaGeek 06-05-01 02:27 PM

Yup :)

Well, I just recieved a butt-load of brochures in the mail today. Out of all of it, I got 2 Cane creek stickers, 1 manitou sticker,and 1 answer sticker. Pretty cool stuff, I am putting the stickers on my helmet, is this uncool? I don't really care if it is, my helmet is a Bell from...Wal-Mart. When I get a new helmet I will keep it clean.

I dunno, what made you ask?

Joe Gardner 06-12-01 11:36 PM

Just wondering :) Have you recived any more stickers? All in all, i think i have recived almost 15 stickers.

BTW, i like the new avatar, GF rules :)

fubar5 06-13-01 05:48 AM

I have gotten a total of 4 stickers so far. The other day I got a slug of mail,at least 20 envelopes, and it was all bike stuff, I loved it.But only one company sent stickers, that was answer/manitou.

Gary is the bomb!!!
