    Seasonal price elasticity

    I've heard that bike demand increases in summer, raising the equilibrium prices.

    Could anybody provide some more specific insight on this?

    It's really simple ...


    Some don't like riding when it's cold.


    So ... they wont buy a bike (even cheaply) that they wont ride for a few more months ...

    I don't think it effects prices ... just the likelihood of selling a bike.

    That depends on how much you want/need to sell a bike. Simple economics
