Soft goods in the spotlight
For the Fashion Show at Taipei Cycle, the organisers have stated that they will recruit local and international apparel brands and manufacturers to showcase their products alongside cycling accessories on stage. This will add a soft goods touch to Taipei Cycle which has historically been more focused on hardware such as components, bicycles, and drive systems. The forum called ‘Beyond Exercise’ will address topics including smart applications, industry trends, and the changing sales channels and marketing tactics for the post-pandemic era.
