Partner status arrangements live on this page. Money buys access and disclosure, not conclusions. A relationship can get a bike documented. It cannot buy a score, a placement, or a verdict.
Every partner entry names one of these relationships. "None" is a real and common answer: we bought the bike at retail and owe the brand nothing.
| Relationship | What they provide | What we publish | What we disclose | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No active relationship | Nothing. We bought the bike at retail. | Specs, fit notes, sources, and a registration file if we registered it. | That we paid retail and no link earns us money. | No affiliate link, no loan, no discount. |
| Affiliate | A tracked link and a commission on sales. | The same coverage we would publish anyway, plus a disclosed link. | The commission terms and the fact that the link pays us. | No placement, no score change, no conclusion. Never on the free guide. |
| Loan | A temporary unit, usually one to four weeks. | Specs and first-ride notes only. | Who loaned it, when, and that it went back. | No registration file, no ownership claim, no long-term reliability claim. |
| Ownership | A dealer-cost or long-term unit we keep. | Specs, fit notes, measurements, and a registration file if we register it. | The price paid and any discount or dealer-cost arrangement. | No score. The discount never changes the fit notes or the specs. |
| Sponsor | Money for the site, not for a conclusion. | Disclosed sponsorship and the coverage it paid for. | The amount or range, and exactly what it funded. | No content control, no placement, no editorial approval. |
This is the public coverage ledger. It lists every brand we have documented or have a relationship with, not only the ones that pay.

Disclosure: We have no relationship with Sur-Ron or its dealers. We do not see a public affiliate program at Surron USA, and no link on these pages earns us money.
We have not bought, borrowed, or been offered a Talaria. The Talaria pages are desk-documented from the maker's spec sheets as published by Talaria Canada, the brand's Canadian distributor, because the maker's own site (talaria.com.cn, Talaria Power Tech (Chongqing) Co., Ltd.) was not serving product data when we checked. Talaria names no US distributor and publishes no US pricing; bikes are sold through independent dealers. Many websites use the Talaria name without being the maker or an established dealer, so we cite only dealers we could identify.
Disclosure: We have no relationship with Talaria, Talaria Canada, or any Talaria dealer. We do not see a public affiliate program from Talaria, and no link on these pages earns us money.
We have not bought, borrowed, or been offered a Rambo. The Rambo pages are documented from Rambo's own product listings.
Disclosure: We have no relationship with Rambo. It runs a public affiliate program, but we have not joined it, and no link on these pages earns us money.
Not published. The page says affiliates run on Shopify Collabs and may display coupons on their own social media and website, and that failing to do that voids commissions.

You can see what a relationship is before you read a fit note. A disclosed loan is not a hidden ad. A "no relationship" entry tells you the bike was bought or researched without anyone's help.
Because money can't buy a conclusion, a page in the catalog is evidence of access, not a sales pitch.
A disclosed loan or affiliate link is more useful than an undisclosed one. Readers can trust a page that tells them the truth about the relationship, and a correction on the record protects the facts.
What you get is coverage and a right of reply on facts. What you don't get is the answer.
