BD bypasses them, you are on your own, throwing the buyer a life-ring is an extra cost.
I mean, that most Bianchis are as italian as BD bikes are French. There is nothing italian about them, yet no one says they are 'fake' and all that kind of stuff like they do BD. Also, having a pt. time, condescending 18-year-old assemble my bike is not really a life-ring to me. Nobody treats your stuff like you do
I dont want this thread to veer off into the fetid cesspool of BD vs. LBS, though.
Too late
