I'm glad to see them still going. Not that I'll buy another (probably) but at least they make some lovely bikes.

Over several decades of bike watching I've heard that story many times, only to watch the high end bike slither down to BSO status, but not before fleecing the unwary as the new owners trade on the name while short cutting more and more.

You mean like Tomac, Vitus or Titus? Holdsworth? Mongoose? That sort of thing?

It’s an age old tale. Maybe this time it will work out
