Not to mention, they could have at least checked their grammar / spelling before putting this out there...

Rise demand -- guess they meant to say "Rise in demand" or "Rising demand"
Tourism is misspelled
What does "Market Segment by Men" mean?

This global market forecast seems a bit rosy.

Well, they did at least get "enviornmental" correct.

That's a tough one to get right.

I don't know anything about running a business, but if I operated a small to medium sized biz, I would be doing just the opposite right now. Head down, focus on managing expenses and keeping the core business healthy.

I suppose ENVE did basically what BOYD is attempting to do?

I wish them luck!
Gotta agree...Wheelsouttaboxes Market VERY crowded with some really big players involved..Like Campagnolo, Fulcrum, Zipp, others.

Plus the bike market due to Post Covid is really slumping right now...

I'm certainly not as knowledgeable as other forum posters, and I didn't sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Even with those handicaps, I know that raising capital to pay off current obligations is a big red flag. Best wishes to Boyd, but I'll pass on this investment opportunity.
