Subject: Bike Parts Video Reviews Wanted
|
Hi everyone, I am looking for people that want to submit video product reviews for bike parts for QBike.com. I've posted 3 of my own videos for stuff I train and race with - Zipp wheels, the Polar S725X HRM, and the SRAM PC90 chain - but of course there a zillion other products out there! If you'd like to let your opinion on a bike part be heard, please email me the link to your bike part video review on youtube, jumpcut, or any of the other video sites. I will work with you to post as much or as little info as you'd like with your product review. Depending on the product, your video will probably be seen between 5 and 50 times per day - my chain review was viewed 495 times in the first week. David Alyea

I want people to send me links to their review videos as hosted on youtube.com, jumpcut, hulu.com, etc. QBike provides - or will when I reach enough video volume - a targeted way for bicyclists to view bike-specific videos. So in the same way that people write reviews for Amazon products or review hotels on tripadvisor, I'd like to create a collection of product review videos for bike parts. I hope I've spaced this posting a bit better! As for the previous reply to my post about spamming, I am doing nothing of the sort. QBike has been around for 9 years - it's not a new site, and it has plenty of traffic already. So I'm not concerned about new users; rather, I want people who are passionate about biking to know that they can express their opinions on helmets, gloves, tires, etc. on QBike and that their reviews will be viewed hundreds of times. I think everyone gets some gratification knowing that their opinion has been weighed, or, gets the same degree of satisfaction knowing their video has been viewed on youtube. So without journeying down the path of "this must be spam" just understand the basic premise that I want people to know that I'd like them to submit their bike product review videos - or make one from scratch! It might be an idea someone hadn't thought about before. David

Same problem. Often this is a case of your client wrapping your text according to its whim, or a default setting, or a setting you set. Let's see ... You are posting through garble groups. Look for a setting there. > As for the previous reply to my post about spamming, I am doing > nothing of the sort.

I understand your concern about this being viewed as a spam topic. It is not. I don't care if anyone visits or stays on the site, though of course, if someone likes the site and finds it useful, fine. QBike isn't new, it's been around for 9 years. So this isn't spam to get new users. There is no link in this thread to the site - the intent is to ask people people for videos talking about bike gear. Really. There are no google or like ads on the site, and just visiting QBike doesn't earn any money for anyone. Anything more you read into this post falls into the cynicism category, which again, I can understand, but doesn't apply here. I'd just like to create a collection of bike part review videos so that people can watch real bikers talking about real bike parts. And some day, I'm going to make some how-to videos on how to fix a flat, lube a chain, etc. David Alyea and find out how they work in action on the road or on the trail.

You want people to _give_ you their work. How about cleaning up you text? The line wrap is so poor that I will stop reading what you have to say now. [...] -- Michael Press
