Hello all,
I am looking for an interview which was published a while ago here on Slowtwitch. Of course I have checked the interview section, but have not managed to find it.
From what I recall, the interview was with a bike designer (or former bike designer), who described how they did "blind bike test".
For example they covered up a race bike and told the tester that he is about to ride the realllllly relaxed and very comfortable endurance model. And surprisingly a lot of testers described the ride as being very relax and comfortable.
Same thing happened when they put the tester on endurance bike and told him that he is riding the super stiff, sporty and whatnot bike. Majority of testers described the ride exactly like that.
I'd appreciate any help!
Take care
Jurgen
