I did the survey but did not like the question where you were forced to rank brands, even if you think certain brands had an equal rank or even if you do not have enough knowledge to rank. Otherwise, pretty good job on setting up a survey.

I started, but then felt an odd feeling in that Trek seemed to be a focus of this survey so I stopped and closed the browser before completing the survey. Sorry, but did not see how a general cycling survey related to such focus on Trek.
Good luck to you, though.

I did it. Trek was definitely the center stage. I have nothing against Trek my bike was made by Trek so its all good.

I also did it. I also didn't like the ranking of the bikes, esp when my bike is an other. Trek was definitely the focus. That didn't really bother me since my older road bike and my mountain bike are both Treks, but my new road bike which fits so perfectly is a Felt.

Trek is based in Wisconsin and the UW School of Business logo is at the top of the survey, so I'm sure there's some connection there. I agree that the brand-ranking felt a little strange, since I also own an "other." I finished the survey though because a. I own a Trek (though that wasn't my last purchase) and b. I'm a UW alum, so I felt compelled to help out a fellow Badger.

I replied but didn't like that it was too Trek centric.

and here I was wondering why the last questions suddenly seemed locked in on trek although I had also mentioned other brands. In the end since I ride a trek. am loyal to trek and am planning to buy another trek I decided it was just coincidence.

I replied but skipped all the Trek-centered questions as I have no experience with actual Trek products. My data will likely be useless, but maybe it will help a student, so worth the few minutes it took to complete.

+1. I like Trek (hence my name) but all of our bikes are "other".
