Over The Edge Sports Melrose(OTE), Southern Flinders Ranges is a family-run business built on trust, passion and a love for cycling and food; It evolved following a SATC tourism venture to the USA to explore new ideas for the SA tourism market. It was established with support from the founder of OTE USA, currently with 3 shops in the USA and OTE Melrose Australia.
The region of Melrose is experiencing rapid growth with an epic new 38km trail opened in late 2023 and increased tourism in the area.

With their primary focus equipping cyclists with ready-to-ride bicycles and accessories to tackle the local mountain and bike tracks around Melrose, located on private property and National Parks.
Target customers are primarily from the mountain biking discipline, however, there is a growing market for road & gravel bike enthusiasts. The bike hire market sits with those interested in the discipline, however, having not made a bike purchase. Hiring bikes with a tour enables the cost of that hire to be reduced from the overall price, encouraging the customer to purchase a bicycle after hiring. With the increase of interest in the E-Bike range, the introduction of Tourism Adventure products will create potential market conditions for customers to consider a bike purchase.
