do whatever you like - no skin off of my nose. My post was just informational about the origin of the Cutter brand. I do use this product though and have had a positive experience with it. That's also just informational.
FWIW Realcyclist.com is owned by a fairly large company. They own several fairly large sites including Competitive Cyclist.com.
