Is it worth taking a new invention that I have developed, to
Interbike?. I will have Patent Pending status on it (for whatever good
that is) but would it (Interbike) be the place to locate a
manufacturer interested in producing it? Or would it be the place that
the idea is given away if you know what I mean🙂 The invention is a
device for storing a bicycle that I have not seen anything even close
to it's usefulness and attributes. (But then, I know, that's what they
all say)! I have three different design prototypes made. Thanks
much, Emmett

I think contacting manufacturers now would be a better idea.
Interbike is a circus and it may be tough to be able to sit down with
any manufacturer since they have so much else on their plate.

I totally agree, and thanks for the reply. The thing is, I think
seeing is believing and so I'll try to pick out manufacturers to
travel to in order to meet face to face and see what happens. Thank
You again for your time and good opinion. Emmett
