This is a real question.
Seems like ElliptiGO just sponsors athletes, but no one really wants to buy those overpriced bicycle/ellipticals. Even with a few people actually making the purchase, they can't be making $$$$.
Oiselle seems to be in no big box stores and very few run specialty stores. They can't stay in business from titlenine sales only.
What gives? How long will they last?
I think there is definitely a market for Oiselle, I live in a somewhat affluent area and the women love upscale niche brands, especially non runners. ElliptiGO shot themselves in the foot with their pricing and target marking. They went after a very small market, which has options for similar home products and it is about double what the regular joe would be willing to pay. Btw, I would like to see both products succeed.
