Aren't these the perennial best sellers: Atlantis and Hillborne? They need a road bike; so Roadeo. Then a "cruiser" -- isn't the Clem the most popular?
Atlantis, Hillborne, Roadeo, Clem: that seems like a pretty good cross section of the market. If they must have 650B, then perhaps offer 650B versions of Atlantis and Roadeo? Or Atlantis and Hillborne? Or add a -- well, 650B model; I'm not up to par on the 650B ones. And wasn't the Hunq a best seller? Thus, in order of what seems best by demand: Atlantis Hillborne Clem Roadeo 650B bike Hunq-type Single Speed That's down from current 10, not including customs.
