DEMO YOUR EDGE WHEELS BEFORE YOU BUY THEM!

So you know exactly what you want from your wheels, right? You've read all you can read and filled your head with just about all the research your can handle...but still you're just a little on the fence about whether or not to pull the trigger.

Edge Composites now has an exclusive demo program that not only connects you directly to our products but also allows you to get just a little more familiar with your favorite bike shop.

Call us old-fashioned, but we still believe that local independent bike shops are the best place for you to purchase your wheels. You know you're going to get great service and advice from people you already have a relationship with, and you're already sold on the capabilities of your mechanic - after all, he's dialing your wheel selection in to your existing drive train.

So here's how it works.

Simply call or email us and we'll help you select the best wheels for your particular needs and riding conditions. If you don't have a favorite shop, we'd be happy to make an introduction. We'll then call ahead with a FedEx tracking number so they can prepare your bike when the wheels arrive. Once at the shop, your mechanic will swap out your existing wheels for the sweet set we've shipped out...and you're on the road. One week. On us. That's seven days of riding in your own back yard to climb your favorite hills faster than ever, drop the guys on the group ride with a sprint worthy of the green jersey or simply enjoy the feel of your bike like you never thought possible.

Here's the small print.

We want you to love the wheels...but we want you to make a small commitment to your shop in exchange for the week's liberty you're asking them to offer you. So here's how we do it. We take a fully secured deposit of $250 that we hold on your credit card. Based on the feedback we've been receiving over the last couple of years, it's highly unlikely you'll be disappointed - but if you take the wheels out and decide they're just not for you; your $250 is returned without obligation. In fact all we'd ask of you in return are your comments.

But if, like us, you love your new EDGE demo wheelset, keep it for another week, ride down to the shop and pay the balance. In the meantime, we'll ship a brand new, shiny set of wheels that you can exchange for the demos. And to make you feel even better about your decision, we'll also donate 1% of your purchase price to your local trail alliance or cycling team to invest in the future of cycling in your area.

It couldn't be easier. Just call us on (801) 476-3363 or email info@edgecomposites.com and start a whole new relationship with your bike.
