He called the person in question a punk and called his bike a beater without knowing a thing about the person. Heck, people call similar bikes to mine a beater and it was extremely expensive to me at $600. So, it could have been someone like me, a father trying to feed 3 others at median income with hardly any discretionary money who took some extra out of a tiny income tax refund and plunked an extraordinary amount of money to himself on something to use to help extend his life so that one day he can see his grandkids, even though in some snobs eyes a mere POS $600 bike is just a beater bike to them.
