Default Bike Parts Video Reviews Wanted

Hi everyone,

I am looking for people that want to submit video product reviews
for bike parts for QBike.com. I've posted 3 of my own videos for
stuff I train and race with - Zipp wheels, the Polar S725X HRM, and
the SRAM PC90 chain - but of course there a zillion other products
out there! If you'd like to let your opinion on a bike part be heard,
please email me the link to your bike part video review on youtube,
jumpcut, or any of the other video sites. I will work with you to
post
as much or as little info as you'd like with your product review.
Depending
on the product, your video will probably be seen between 5 and 50
times
per day - my chain review was viewed 495 times in the first week.

Will QBP be providing the test parts?

I understand your concern about this being viewed as a spam topic.
It is not. I don't care if anyone visits or stays on the site, though
of
course, if someone likes the site and finds it useful, fine. QBike
isn't
new, it's been around for 9 years. So this isn't spam to get new
users.
There is no link in this thread to the site - the intent is to ask
people
people for videos talking about bike gear. Really. There are no
google
or like ads on the site, and just visiting QBike doesn't earn any
money
for anyone. Anything more you read into this post falls into the
cynicism
category, which again, I can understand, but doesn't apply here. I'd
just
like to create a collection of bike part review videos so that people
can
watch real bikers talking about real bike parts. And some day, I'm
going
to make some how-to videos on how to fix a flat, lube a chain, etc.

and find out how they work in action on the road or on the trail.

You want people to _give_ you their work.

How about cleaning up you text? The line wrap is so
poor that I will stop reading what you have to say now.

Thanks for your response. I want people to send me links to
their review videos as hosted on youtube.com, jumpcut, hulu.com,
etc. QBike provides - or will when I reach enough video volume -
a targeted way for bicyclists to view bike-specific videos. So in
the same way that people write reviews for Amazon products
or review hotels on tripadvisor, I'd like to create a collection of
product review videos for bike parts.

I hope I've spaced this posting a bit better!

As for the previous reply to my post about spamming, I am doing
nothing of the sort. QBike has been around for 9 years - it's not a
new
site, and it has plenty of traffic already. So I'm not concerned
about
new users; rather, I want people who are passionate about biking to
know that they can express their opinions on helmets, gloves, tires,
etc.
on QBike and that their reviews will be viewed hundreds of times. I
think
everyone gets some gratification knowing that their opinion has been
weighed, or, gets the same degree of satisfaction knowing their video
has been viewed on youtube. So without journeying down the path of
"this must be spam" just understand the basic premise that I want
people
to know that I'd like them to submit their bike product review videos
- or
make one from scratch! It might be an idea someone hadn't thought
about
before.

Same problem. Often this is a case of your client
wrapping your text according to its whim, or
a default setting, or a setting you set. Let's
see ... You are posting through garble groups.
Look for a setting there.
