OK, one more time (and it probably won't be the last time, either: )
You don't have to be a 'racer' to appreciate high-end bikes and equipment. Buying a bike that's "too good" for you is only a problem if you're spending money you don't have. Is the OP proposing that prospective bike buyers have to fill out a questionnaire to determine 'how good' a bike they are allowed to buy?
