Yup, I appreciate what they are doing, and am glad they do it, but it ain't me!  |
Original parts on most bike sucks especially from 2015 on back. I don't understand the original factory BS.
Forget those guys. Everyone always have something to say. I have American made forks on older European frames and so on. Once in a while, I would get a bug up my rear and ride one of the old bikes and someone always seem to come along with a mouth full. Half of them can't ride straight so I go on my way. There's a crack on my old ITM stem, so it was replaces with a Ritchie (?) WCS and a modern Shimano bar. They sure felt the thorn between their finger nails. Hey even if you bought the bike new, swap out parts is as normal as eating breakfast.
