Get a free bike when you sign up and sign up 99ppl

Why are you making me out to be some kind of hater . I have nothing against Dan making a 100 bikes or giving them away. Nothing in my post indicated that. You can read it again if you need to.BH

Where does this "hate" comment always come from (not talking about just you)? Is this some kind of defense mechanism?

It's from all the persecution Jews have faced over the years. Built up resentment.

Welcome to DDF, where every topic needs to go off topic at least once

This thread is way off topic.

That's usually the case here

[cholent]

Welcome to DDF, where every topic needs to go off topic at least once

And where we need to debate whether Dan has the right to control posts on his forum at least once a week

Any expreinces yet with 99 emails yet ?

Before you go back on track:)

I am not against anyone doing anything on there own domain. I just thought this was a market place not a supermarket ( reference to Dans comment on page 3 i think).

What is more concerning then my misconception, is the reaction to a bunch of people...

To get this back on topic..... I reached 99 and got this message on the website : "99 friends have joined! You've won a free bike. We'll contact winners with instructions on 3/23."

Then I received this email.......Now I am not sure what is going on.......




Hello Brilliant Bicyclers,

As a reminder, our contest ends in just under two hours at 4pm EDT today.

It's been quite a week - over 100,000 participants and 180 free bikes! While all free bicycles have been won, you can still earn store credit for the next two hours.
Look for an email on Monday, March 23rd with instructions about how to collect your rewards*.
 
Thank you!

The Brilliant Team

What a scam... They changed the terms of the promotion yesterday ending it earlier than scheduled.

Then they sent that email which limits the number of bikes they're giving out. That was never announced before.

its not a scam. They just realized how silly they were to offer free bikes. I guess theyve never heard of DDF.

Yeah that's what I was worried about the whole time. They are a small startup, I doubt they thought it would blow up like it did. Their statement of "180 free bikes" reeks of a cap they imposed after it exploded. Will keep everyone posted but would be a shame if they didn't honor it....

[dslans21]

.....and here is their reply. Buying time until 3/23 to figure out what their public response will be:

Hi Dov,

We will send you confirmation of your final referral count and corresponding rewards on Monday, March 23.

Thanks,
Wendy

Free bike, I am in...

[nocknock]

I don't understand DAN,  he's in love with his Altima as he writes in all TR's.

WHY does he care if someone here wants to make a free bike, there is enough for more than one bike (it's not CC bonus or etc.)

The guy who started the thread he's the one who bought the deal so Y....?

Per forum rules, forum rules cannot be discussed on the forums, only through PM's.

So we have a couple of bikes headed our way, thanks OP

Except...I've never been on a bike in my life 

Should I just get the base model? Or are any of the upgrades or speeds worthwhile?

Ouch. How could that even have happened?


The bikes look really nice. Hopefully they'll encourage you to learn =)
