From our friends at Pez...hmmmm...me like!

Why can't ads be like this in America??? Sure would sell a lot of helmets.

I don't understand what a naked woman has to do with selling a helmet. It would be nice if advertisers actually concentrated on the product they were selling.

Simply put, sex sells. It's advertising. How many memorable helmets ads can you recall?

Believe it or not, she's a helmet designer for Limar.

Here she is signing my poster and giving me her digits.

Must be hard going a "business trip" to Interbike and being forced to network and schmooz with people like this Limar designer ;)

I saw this ad in the latest Velonews buyers' guide and thought 'man, that looks like a euro ad if ever I saw one'. So... I guess we're (slowly) catching on to what sells.

She is also at the "Podium" section of the banner at the top of this discussion board, unless she is new up there.

i can testify that it also has some traction with the 29 yr old male market too, or at least one part of that market

That's why there aren't advertisements like this in America. Go to Europe and South America, things change.
