What's interesting is that Specialized dealers can only afford to discount say 20% max. Performance routinely runs 50% markdowns on their bikes and not just at the end of season. I'm not trying to make any quality or performance comparisons between the two. I just find it interesting. Who is losing or keeping the differential? Is this the effect of removing maybe one middle man.
