Taichung Bike Week 2024 Impressions
“Even though there are challenges like supply chain problems and rising costs, there’s still a lot of innovation, especially with e-bikes and eco-friendly materials. Companies are trying to adjust to the changing market while continuing to look for ways to grow.”
“Last year, many overseas visitors made the trip to Taichung Bike Week despite the dismal state of the industry as there was a lot of catch-up to do after the long COVID-related hiatus. This year, the state of the industry was reflected in the lower attendance, which I would estimate to be just 50 percent of last year’s numbers.”
“This year’s show was very important for Mavic as a follow-up on last year’s promises. We now have OE structure set up with a dedicated catalog and sales force, OE-only products, and matching pricing. Despite a quieter show we had a lot of traffic.”
“For me, this was the best Taichung Bike Week ever. I have never before gathered that many business cards and thus new contacts, and every meeting was highly productive. This really was a case of quality over quantity in terms of visitors.”
