Most depressing line in this thread: "Double digit decline in road bike sales, small bump in MTB sales, huge growth in ebike market"
I’d disagree I’m 22 and grew up playing video games but still out here cycling. For a lot of ppl it’s just not appealing. Cycling isn’t wide spread like other sports in youth k-12. Go to your local high school there isn’t a cycling team. People want to be the football QB star, play soccer, swim, water polo, wrestle, debate team, and basketball. Cycling is depending on a older generation when it needs to focus on more youth stuff.
