Cane Creek Opens The Lounge

Author: Extra UK | Thu, 20 Sep 2012

Cane Creek Cycling Components officially opens the doors to The Lounge, an online community for Double Barrel owners to connect, learn and interact.
 
In The Lounge, Double Barrel owners create profiles, share shock tunes and ride information, access suspension experts and special guests, take advantage of exclusive offers and socialise with fellow members.  “Our goal is to unlock the vast knowledge base of the Double Barrel community by creating an interactive network of our riders,” says CEO Scott Sonnone.
 
“Our “Define Your Great” concept encompasses three critical components,” says Director of Marketing, Holly Colson.  “We send you off with bike-specific recommended settings; guide you through the process of fine tuning your shock with our new Tuning Field Guide; and, now with the Lounge, we provide a gathering place to share experiences and validate tunes.”
 
Cane Creek teamed up with Pinkbike.com to accelerate the development and growth of the Lounge.  Users can create their Lounge profile by directly linking it with their Pinkbike account.  “Pinkbike is a community and this ties in perfectly, The Lounge is an extension of what Pinkbike is – bringing like-minded riders together to solve problems”, says Karl Burkat, CEO of Pinkbike.com.
 
Cane Creek’s online community is named The Lounge after the commonly referenced name for a group of lizards (or in this case, a group of Blue-Tailed Skinks) – a lounge of lizards.  Currently, access to The Lounge is only available to Double Barrel and DBair owners.  If you happen to be a Double Barrel rider – Click Here – and become a member today.
