Pure Cycles

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

promotional article for very small manufacturer. Forbes 30 under 30 is just one of 600 awards every year in various fields, and not a notable award. The NYT Ref is a review of about a dozen devices--this company's product is just one of them.  DGG ( talk ) 04:19, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete -- A promo page on a nn small business whose claim to fame is "embracing glow-in-the-dark paint" (?). Nothing encyclopedically relevant here. WP:TOOSOON for sure. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:59, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment. I usually agree this type of articles are spam, but in this case I'd like to ask the nom (User:DGG) and User:K.e.coffman to comment on and . Not enough? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  09:35, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Ref 2, Fox, is utterly useless. It says at the top: "We’re highlighting small businesses from around the country as nominated by you, our readers.", and what it means by highlight is letting the owner say whatever he chooses. Ref 1, Entrepreneur, is more substantial. But it says that "But Pure Fix Cycles, which brought in nearly $4 million in 2012, has positioned itself to become a big wheel in the bike biz"  (That  normally means, Not Yet Notable -- but it was written in 2013, and therefore does not rule out that  have become notable  since then.)    Otherwise, the story is written as a PR piece  with many hyperbolic quotes from the company founders. But it is an attempt at real journalism and  Ive seen worse. Another like that might just do it.
