Wheel Lightweight
Tuesday, September 6th, 2011Economics: How do firms in the same industry differentiate their products?
Most Mountain bikes come equipped with either two 26-Inch Wheels or two 29-inch wheels. Tour bicycles offers a special model with one 29-inch wheel on the front and a 26-inch wheel on the back. Tour claims the small rear wheel facilitates faster acceleration, while the bigger Front Wheel allows riders to clear obstacles more easily. Tour also uses lightweight components made from material that is stronger and more durable than the material used by some of its rivals.
Tour differentiates its mountain bike on the basis of:
A) Location
B) Quality
C) Type
Its a little tricky. Sounds like it could be quality or type, quality because the material is said to be stronger/more durable, but type because of the different wheels.
