Holy cow! I’m generally not a fan of a giant conglomerate with different names because, as you said, sometimes it just leads to the same information (articles, reviews, etc) being posted on multiple sites. I personally don’t use Pink Bike much, but they have a great marketplace that I’ve used many times to buy and sell. Not sure how it would be affected but I’m hoping they don’t turn everything into a money grab.
My bigger concern is BikeReg. I’m hoping the race fees don’t increase as they handle 95% of the races/rides I do. I’m hoping they don’t take more off the top from race promoters as well.
