same name different frame
Don't we just loathe the "same name, different frame" (but lookalike) game, that has been going on since our sports inception?
Klein, Yeti, Bontrager, Litespeed, Fisher, Diamondback, Pace, GT, Raleigh, the list is endless! Are Cannondale next as they are now having a lot of their lower half frames made in the far East?
The nasty thing is, they ain't really cheaper for the consumer (thee and me), you can buy a good old Brit' engineered and made to measure 853 etc frame for the same layout.
If everyone boycotted the big names and supported the real quality builders ,the scene would soon look so different.
