I think you're not reading the criticism of BD correctly.

Everyone here understands what they are doing. I think most of the BD critics are just offended by their marketing hype, which is misleading. They compare their bikes against branded product, partly by inflating their MSRP's. A more accurate comparison would be comparing their bikes against other private label/no name brands. As long as you understand what you are getting -- a no-name bike from Asia, w/assembly required, and no local support -- there is nothing wrong with their bikes. Plenty of folks have said that in this thread, and others.

You come off as naive and shrill, which is as bad as being a snob. Having made your point repeatedly -- both in this thread and elsewhere -- I'm not sure what else you have to prove. Go order a bike from BD; they're good values; I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
