BETHESDA, Md. (BRAIN) — Organizers of a March, 2019, bicycle trade show in New Jersey are looking for nominations for speakers.

The American Bike Expo is planned for March 6-7 at the Meadowlands Expo Center in Secaucus, New Jersey, a few miles west of New York City. It is being planned by Electric Bike Events LLC, which produces e-bike events including four "eMTB Experience" events, planned for this year in Arizona, Nevada, Colorado and Idaho. Each of those events is tied to an EnduroCross Race Series event. 

The American Bike Expo will include three conference programs: the Bike Retailer Conference (with an IBD and an e-IBD track), the US Cargo Bike Summit and the Bike Share Conference.

"These programs all relate to growing the bike retailer/distributor's business, and the overall theme is Bike Retailing 2024," the company said.

Organizers are looking for industry members to nominate a speaker from their company or a client. More information at electricbikeevents.com.

BOULDER, Colo. (BRAIN) — Bicycle Product Suppliers Association members shipped fewer bikes to dealers through the first half of the year, compared to last year. But even so, they tallied more dollar business.

Suppliers shipped 73,795 fewer bikes to retailers through the first six months of the year — a 6.4 percent drop from last year. But, through June, suppliers' business with retailers totaled $564.7 million, or up 6 percent from $532 million last year.

This suggests that suppliers are selling pricier bikes to dealers, and could reflect the impact of higher-value e-bikes. Shipments of electric bikes were up a whopping 83 percent through the first half.

Shipment declines were seen across most categories. Besides e-bikes, the exceptions were BMX, which was up 21 percent compared to the same period last year, and full suspension 29ers, which were up 21 percent as well. Shipments of lifestyle/leisure bikes were up a modest 3.5 percent.

The road category overall saw a 1.5 percent decline in shipments, but sub-categories including "cyclocross" and "other" saw unit growth of 43 percent and 64 percent, respectively, hoisting the road category shipments' total value to $149.75 million, up from $135.73 million for the same period a year ago.

FRUITA, Colo. (BRAIN) — Local retailer Over the Edge Sports and the City of Fruita are hosting a three-day meeting here in October devoted to trails-based economic development. 

Registration is now open for 100 seat at T.H.E Trail Summit, which is Oct. 10-12. T.H.E. stands for "Trails Humanity Experience."

Fruita began rebuilding its economy 24 years ago by building miles of mountain bike trails near town, in hopes of developing a mountain bike tourism business to complement the area's boom and bust energy industry.

The summit will discuss how communities can differentiate themselves as competition has skyrocketed.

"Today an immeasurable number of places are grabbing for the attention of the mountain bike audience ... So why isn't every town that has great singletrack the hottest new destination? The paths to success are blurry; trail style and user demographics are getting confused and are setting the stage for failed efforts, wasted funds and scars across the land," organizers said. 

The summit is being aimed at trails/bike industry professionals, community leaders, local, regional and state land managers, trail designers and builders, tourism professionals, community stakeholders, project managers and leaders, trail/recreation volunteers, advocacy representatives, and individuals that are committed to trail projects.

Each day of the summit will have a theme that will be explored through discussions, speakers, panels, experiential learning, and social/networking opportunities.

A list of speakers and an agenda is on the event's website, thetrailsummit.com.

BOULDER, Colo. (BRAIN) — Dave Whittingham, an industry veteran who managed bike shops, developed products and worked for several brands in the Boulder area, died Monday of complications from a bicycle accident. He was 67.

Over his long career Whittingham worked in marketing for Catalyst Communication, SmartEtailing, Inside Communications, Maverick Bicycles and Wheels Manufacturing. He also had a sideline making trophies and retail displays, including awards for the Colorado NICA league, the BPSA Lifetime Achievement Awards and retail displays for Stages Cycling and other brands, as well as custom retail displays for bike shops and other projects outside the bike industry.

In the 1970s Whittingham managed The Spoke, a now legendary bike shop in Boulder. That's when he met Dave Batka, who later founded Wheels Manufacturing. The two were friends for about 40 years and Whittingham did marketing for Wheels for about the last ten years. "We were friends for a long time and I’ll miss him. He was my first boss," Batka said.

Whittingham enjoyed making custom awards. Each of the BPSA Lifetime Achievement Awards that have been bestowed were tailored for their recipients, said Ray Keener, the BPSA's executive director.

"He wouldn't do generic awards, he had to make each one special," Keener said.

The season-end awards he made for the Colorado NICA league were also each one of a kind, said Kate Rau, who runs the league. Whittingham had done the awards since the league's inception 9 years ago.

"That was just Dave, he had to make each one special," said Rau. "He was an amazing individual, very understated and quiet, but very creative and supportive." 

According to friends, Whittingham had a solo bike accident while on a road ride in Boulder County on July 20. He suffered a brain injury and never regained consciousness.

Whittingham had three children and one grandchild. Details on a memorial service were unavailable Tuesday. 

MILWAUKEE (BRAIN) — Harley Davidson announced an ambitious growth plan Monday that includes the launch of a variety of new products, including, possibly, e-bikes.

Among other changes, the company announced it would launch a family of no-clutch electric two-wheelers next year. That line will start out with the company's first electric motorcycle, called the LiveWire.

"LiveWire will be followed by additional models through 2022 to broaden the portfolio with lighter, smaller and even more accessible product options to inspire new riders with new ways to ride," the company said. 

In a news release, the company included illustrations of four electric two-wheelers, including lightweight street and offroad motorcycles, a scooter, and what appears to be a full suspension electric mountain bike. The company released no details of the two-wheelers. 

The company also said it will improve and expand its global digital capabilities to integrate with its dealerships and will launch new retail formats including smaller, urban storefronts.

"Harley-Davidson's world-class dealer network is an integral part of the company's accelerated strategy and critical to overall success. The company will implement a performance framework to significantly enhance the strength of the dealer network and the customer experience, enabling the best-performing and most entrepreneurial dealers to drive innovation and success for themselves and Harley-Davidson — while providing the premium customer experience the brand is known for across an increasingly diverse product and customer base."

Besides the electric motorcycles, Harley said it's expanding its heavyweight motorcycle development, introducing a new middleweight line of motorcycles in 2020, and launching a small-displacement motorcycle for Asia emerging market in an alliance with an Asian manufacturer.

OLATHE, Kan. (BRAIN) — Garmin saw a 24 percent increase in sales in its fitness division (which includes its bike products) in the second quarter this year, and has seen a 23 percent increase year to date.

The company said sales of its fitness wearables and its cycling products contributed to the growth. Garmin launched its Vivoactive 3 fitness watch, which includes music storage, in the quarter, as well as new Edge and Varia cycling products. The division's sales totaled $391 million in the first half, up from $319 million last year.

Garmin's total revenue for the second quarter was $894 million, growing 8 percent over the prior year. The company noted that its fitness, marine, aviation and outdoor divisions — everything except its auto division — collectively grew 17 percent over the prior year quarter and contributed 80 percent of total revenue in the quarter. The auto division was down 19 percent in the quarter and is down 16 percent for the first half of this year.

Sales of Garmin's outdoor products grew 4 percent in the second quarter and 11 percent in the first half.

Garmin raised its full-year forecast. The company now says it expect total revenue for the year at $3.3 billion, up $100 million over its prior forecast. A good chunk of that comes from the fitness division; Garmin's earlier forecast called for flat sales in the division this year, but now it forecasting 10 percent growth for the full year.

SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif. (BRAIN) — Fox Factory, which offers Fox suspension, Marzocchi, Easton cycling and Race Face products in the cycling market, saw a 15.1 percent increase in sales of bike products in the second quarter. The Q2 results cap a first half that recorded a 13 percent increase in bike-related sales.

In a conference call with investors on Wednesday, Larry Enterline, Fox's CEO, said inventory levels in the bike industry channels where Fox is active is in better shape than in previous years.

"In general the bike industry seems to be having a better year than it has had in recent years," he said. He said Fox sales were strong in Europe and North America. Company officials said sales of its new e-bike forks "did have strength" but were not exceptional. 

"We remain enthusiastic about e-bikes and we continue to devote resources to that market," Enterline said. "It's a wave that clearly we want to be able to ride."

Fox recorded a 46.8 percent increase in powered vehicle products in the second quarter. 

Across both categories, sales were up 29.8 percent to $156.8 million compared to $120.8 million in the same period last fiscal year.

"Our differentiated bike and powered vehicle market positions fueled broad-based strength across our product portfolio, resulting in record second quarter sales and profitability, both of which exceeded our expectations," said Larry Enterline, Fox's CEO. "We are pleased with our team's continued execution as we further expand into new and existing end markets building upon our core bike and powered vehicle category capabilities with compelling product innovation. We believe we remain well positioned for future growth and based on these strong operational and financial results as well as our outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising our annual guidance."

For the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the company expects sales in the range of $166 million to $176 million. For the fiscal year 2018, the company expects sales in the range of $596 million to $614 million.

MONTRÉAL (BRAIN) — Dorel Industries said Friday that its bike business rebounded in the second quarter with revenue up $15.5 million or 7.4 percent to $224.5 million. Revenue through the first half of the year was up $8.1 million or 1.9 percent to $431.2 million, but remained flat compared to the previous year after removing the impact of foreign exchange rates.

Dorel owns Cannondale, Caloi, GT, Fabric, Schwinn, Mongoose and Charge.

“Dorel Sports rebounded strongly after a tough start to the year, posting solid adjusted results ... We overcame the impact of the Toys“R”Us bankruptcy earlier in the year. We are encouraged by the markets’ reaction to our new bicycle and juvenile products. Sell-through has been good over the past few months and more new products are set to launch through the second half, providing optimism for the balance of the year,” said Dorel president and CEO Martin Schwartz, in a statement.

The bike segment rebounded from a difficult start to the year with improved second-quarter adjusted operating profit compared with the first quarter. Compared to 2017, second-quarter revenue growth was more than 10 percent at both Cycling Sports Group (CSG), its IBD brands, and Caloi.

The company said CSG recorded growth in all key regions with good momentum from recent product launches. Caloi continued to grow on new product innovation and was further aided by a gradual improvement in the Brazilian economy. Pacific Cycle experienced a modest revenue decline overall with the negative impact of the Toys“R”Us U.S. liquidation, but revenue to other key customers increased.

Dorel Sports sold its apparel business in the second quarter to Louis Garneau Sports, and the transaction resulted in restructuring costs of $11.2 million of which $9.2 million was noncash, due to a write-down of the Sugoi trademark and inventory markdowns. The company said the divestiture will allow Dorel Sports to focus on its core strategic businesses of bikes, parts and accessories categories and electric ride-ons.

Second quarter operating loss was $3.3 million compared to an operating profit of $4.9 million a year ago due to these restructuring costs. Excluding restructuring and other costs, adjusted operating profit rose $2.3 million, or 40.5 percent, to $8 million from $5.7 million last year.

Through the first half, operating loss was $4.1 million compared to an operating profit of $15 million in 2017. When excluding the $6.6 million impairment loss on trade accounts receivable from Toys“R”Us recorded in the first quarter, adjusted operating profit for the six months was $13.8 million compared to $15.1 million a year ago.

“In all three of our segments, proposed tariffs recently announced in the U.S. would impact a significant number of our product categories, and is creating business uncertainty. However, our competition will be similarly affected as we will all be required to adjust pricing upwards and higher costs will ultimately be passed on to consumers,” Schwartz said.

Dorel is holding an earnings call at 12 p.m. Eastern to discuss its results.

WASHINGTON (BRAIN) — BMC is recalling its Timemachine 01 bikes and frames because in some situations the front tire can hit the downtube, posing a fall hazard.

The CPSC said BMC has received four reports of falls in the U.S., including one that resulted in a broken finger. 

The company is asking owners to bring the bikes to an authorized dealer for inspection. A replacement fork will be available in September or October. In the meantime, the dealer can replace the front tire with a 23 millimeter width model to increase clearance. 

BMC said that a loose headset and a wide tire can result in the tire hitting the downtube when the bike is ridden under load.  

About 430 bikes and frames are being recalled in the U.S. The recall involves all model year 2017 and 2018 Timemachine 01 bicycles and model year 2018 Timemachine 01 framesets. Timemachine 01 is printed in glossy black letters on the flat black top tube. The bikes were sold in red, yellow and black.

The bikes were sold from September 2016 through June 2018 for between $7,000 and $13,000.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (BRAIN) — Cane Creek Cycling Components has announced the release of their DB Air CS and DB Coil CS shocks in trunnion-mount versions. Both shocks include the same four-way independent adjustability and climb-switch technology of their standard-mount counterparts and are available in sizes ranging from 185 mm x 50mm to 225mm x 75mm.

"Trunnion-mount has really taken off in the past few years with many great frame manufacturers going exclusively to that standard," said Sam Anderson, product manager for Cane Creek. "We want riders on trunnion-mount bikes to be able to experience the same world-class performance, adjustability and hand-built quality they would on a non-trunnion bike.
