Sticking with the hijack here, I thought I'd mention that my recumbent is a Counterpoint Presto, made in the Pacific Northwest 20+ years ago; after Counterpoint went under, Pashley bought the design and continued to make the same design in England for a while, calling it the Pashley PDQ. So... Pashley is/was not above re-making classic designs. Even so, I wouldn't use the term 'knock-off' which implies a
cheap copy. Pashley doesn't do cheap.
Snarky, I'm looking forward to hearing how Creme handles the return!
