KRAK! Haven't seen you in a while...

Alpinestar for sure! I think ADAM covered them all pretty well...

 

[Firetire]

what about parts?

 

[Wessinger03R6]

I think you should carry Alpinestars line, Dainese, Motogp, Held gloves, Sidi line, and I wanna try the AXO line. I've heard good things about AXO, but I won't know until I get my suit in January. I hope not to crash test it.

[bosoxdave]

He can't sell them online, per Arai's distribution rules, if I am not mistaken

---Can't sell Arai online.


Adam has put together a very complete list and I agree with his choices except for Dianese. I think the Dianese brand is too expensive and won't be worth trying to stock.

Offering Dianese would be a good choice but certainly not stocking anything they have. It could be an understanding that they are special order products for those willing to wait.

One last thing from a viewer's perspective. Please make your site easy to navigate and with good detailed pictures of the items. I hate trying to navigate a text website especially with today's web technology.

Good Luck in your venture.

Everything possible. I would have to put a +1 on Teknic gear.

A cool (but maybe not practical for you) option would be to allow a compare (similar to what bestbuy.com has) so people easily see the differences in gear.

dnfab - yeah, I agree with the special order on the Dainese, I just included them because I know guys that swear by them and wont buy anything else. I wouldnt stock them either, as they are purchases few and far between.. :/
