In the beginning we thought there was a sudden interest in the bicycle as an alternative form of transportation,” he said, but the answer proved more complicated than that.
…
Yes, he said, part of the boom could be attributable to the rising interest in physical fitness as American life become more sedentary. And the Arab oil embargo in the fall of 1973 certainly encouraged some people to ride bikes instead of sitting in gas lines. But Townley didn’t buy the argument that environmentalism had much to do with it. Cyclists may like the fact that they are environmentally benign, but he argued that those concerns don’t drive people to get on their bikes if they aren’t otherwise predisposed to do so. More persuasive to Townley were the sales data from his (Schwinn’s) old strategic plan, which showed that in the late sixties and early seventies teenagers were increasingly moving up to ten-speed bikes.— On the 1970’s bike boom, Pedaling Revolution by Jeff Mapes.
