Not entirely true. Although their days of producing bikes like the Paramount are gone they still seem to make LBS quality bikes. I recall seeing some of the more expensive models on their website just few years ago, and I've also seen carbon bikes on the road in the past. They sure seemed more modern than bikes from 1990.
