Survey classic and retro bicycles (With prizes to be won!)

[Klassikbike]

Good morning,

Ok again but now with approval from
John
The Guv'nor

I work in a product development team, at a bicycle parts manufacturer (Id like to keep the name anonymous).
I am currently doing some freelance research work on classic and retro bicycles which have seen an uphill trend in the past few years.
For this i created a survey. With the research I want to know who the target customer (hopefully you) is and also to look for what kind of products you guys are looking for to see if it would make sense for us to create products in a classic design.
To make the survey more interesting for you guys I have combined it with a prize draw (Everyone who enters and fills out the complete survey automatically enters).
Theres 5 prizes to be won with a total value of about 800+ US Dollars.
1st Prize: Bicycle repair and cair kit (Repair stand, and care products) with a value of about 530 US Dollars
2nd Prize: Bicycle front and rear lighting + bicycle computer with a value of about 160 US Dollars
3rd Prize: Bicycle backpack with a carrry volume of 20 Liter, value of around 110 US Dollars
New 4th Prize: Vintage bottle cage with a value of around 17 US Dollars
New 5th Prize: Vintage bottle cage with a value of around 17 US Dollars


Heres the link to the survey, where you will also find more information: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WK38GHR
If you have any questions, do not hesitate me to post a reply here or send me a PM.

Cheers,

Paul
