Is anyone interested in purchasing Orbea bike frames from Sugar Cycles.  I know I am.  Here is a link to the Orbea website.

http://www.orbea-usa.com/

The deal described below from Alex's communique with Kyle at Sugar Cycles cannot be beaten.

Joel,

Kyle said he doesn't have a problem selling you some Orbea frames for 20% over cost. You might want to ask the team if anyone else is interested in ordering frames, as buying them in bulk would save Sugar Cycles on shipping.

Just remember, this deal is only to paid members of the Cougar Cycling team, also that all bike deals must go through and be approved by Alex first.

Haven't received a price list, but just check out the bikes and let us know what you would be interested in.  We will work from there.

There is a chance of me being interested in an Ora or Ordu frame, but like Matt, I would have to see some pricing.

I gave Sugar cycles our team roster, so they know who's a member and who's not.

I know, but I just hope people don't go there and try to get discounts even if they are not on there.  This has happened before with other sponsors.

all those bikes look pretty sweet.  I think the determining factor is going to be the prices.

Does the cost + 20% deal apply to components and other goods purchased through Sugar Cycles as well, or just to bikes?

yes, the discount should include at least everything in store.  Now special orders, we will need to cladrify.  But again, special orders should be approved by Alex.
