Save referenceCuriosity Gap
Plenty of people would ride more if bikes didn't cost so much. The title names that worry, and the thumbnail shows a smart silver Canyon under REVOLUTIONARY with a question mark. The price isn't shown, so you click to see how cheap it is.
'Is Cycling Too Expensive' voices the frustration of people priced out, which is a far bigger group than existing cyclists, and 'Could Be' keeps the claim modest.
The bike is shown side-on and whole against green hedges, so it reads clearly when small, and the question mark invites you to judge the claim yourself.
When a product could open your hobby to people priced out, name the cost worry in the title and show the product whole and clean. Keep the price out of the thumbnail and add a doubtful one-word verdict.
Name the cost worry, show the product, hide the price.
