But you haven't been here arguing like the others right?
This is my point ijen...the biggest defenders of BD don't own a BD bike themselves.
I find it weird that some assume automatically that if a person doesn't like a particular bike, then they have to hate it.
Personally, I'm indifferent to BD bikes and can only base my judgments on the experiences of those who've owned them.
Again, to each his (or her) own I always say.
I felt the same way about my first RB (my Trek) that you feel for your bike.
It gets trashed a lot (probably the most trashed brand around).
For me, it's a recreational vehicle.
For some people bicycles are their LIFE.
Not worth me getting so riled up that I hurl insults or curse at others.
