The Big Corazzo Mystery Product!

Post by ericalm »

2strokebuzz has an interesting teaser about a new Corazzo product announcement which has led to some interesting conjecture. It's probably not the parka many of us have been anticipating.

Read about it and comment here:
http://2strokebuzz.com/index.php?p=4804

Any guesses?

I'm betting the "explosion of pleasure" is not what first came to my mind.

Anyone have the game Jelly Car on their iPhones? I'm hoping it is a squishy bouncy scooter than you drive through a squishy bouncy world.

I dunno, corazzo makes clothing, so I'd say it's a new jacket or glove, or maybe pants!

Or maybe they're importing scooters now and selling them under the corazzo brand? Who knows!

Then again if it changes commuting past scooterdom.....I'm stumped.

I'm going to say it's free candy.

It is revolutionary
It will change the way people will look at their scooter.
It will turn commuting in to an explosion of pleasure.
It is not limited to scooterdom, but had applications across most human conditions

A piece of plastic like material,

this piece of plastic will create an impenetrable force field around your entire body,

if only humans could breathe through saran wrap...


Maybe corazzo has solved that problem?

Is someone finally going to make men's jackets in interesting colors?

It would be nice if Corazzo at least offered a similar range of color choice to men as they do women. OK, not pink, but at least give us some choices. How about a white 5.0 with various colored stripes to choose from? Or some different colored Speedways with a white mesh? There is a lot of room for improved selection (IMHO)

I always admired the jacket riding jacket House wears on the tv series "House". But then again, I admire anything on him.

I think demand and sourcing materials probably limits colors and other variations for now. Maybe they could offer custom combinations of existing colors? Corazzo Jacket Mongolian BBQ?

I'd really love to see a riding line with the variety of Burton snowboard jackets, which come in graphics, pinstripes, plaids, etc.

In all seriousness though, I'm thinking it's a clothing item, or some sort of life style item like a purse, a mug, or something.

That wouldnt be a bad idea, it could be used outside of scooting too, like a stadium styled seat with a back rest.

Why doesn't Corazzo make pants?
It sounds like this is not going to be awesome protective pants with reflective material like they should be making.

LOL - I think I've figured it out!

Maybe it's a new type of protective armor that uses Freshen Up gum so if you're in an accident it releases an "explosion of pleasure?"

Almost as good as a jet-pack, and better science than ScootENZE. And NO suction cups!

Yeah, thats kinda neat. Though I've been carrying my coffee in my glove box for a year now, and have only spilled twice....

Well I'm disappointed. A coffee mug carrier..... :|

I don't drink coffee, but like Kaos said, you can already hold a cup in the glove box, I've carried a cup of pepsi a few times with no spill issues in the glove box compartment. I dunno, a dangling cup of liquid doesnt seem safe to me, I have a eery feeling it will just fall out.

Make your own ...
I suppose I should be upset, even feel violated, but I'm not. No, in fact, I think this is a friendly message, like "Hey, wanna play?" and yes I want to play. I really really do.

Well that's really handy! For those of us without scooters with built-in cup holders, that's a great idea! I've been wanting something to carry coffee to work with me. It'll also make it viable to stop at the drive-through coffee kiosks.
I'll think I'll get one for my non-scootering husband as well. He always has so many things to carry to work that it's hard to also carry his coffee, and he sure loves his coffee!
