It is hard to know how cycling teams will be affected. But, I think it is true that the top range of the market will be adversely affected by downturn as people avoid ‘luxury items’

how will it impact on bike clubs built around sponsorship? many clubs/teams – you know the ones with X in their club names! – these non-traditional teams will suffer. there may well be an increase in cycling as a way of saving, but the retailers benefitting from any boom wont be traditional bike retailers.
discounters such as aldi,lidl, tesco et al will benefit from this market.
