I will go for the highest quality I can get for the money I have.
I don't subscribe to the notion of buying/not buying a brand of bikes based on their philosophy or corporate past. It's all marketing. Also, I would wager that there's not one mid-to-large sized bike company out there that has never done anything that people would find to be morally reprehensible in order to gain greater market share. Trek and Specialized's moves were just more high profile than others.
That being said, I'll always love those awesome pre-Trek Klein MTB's. Too bad Klein couldn't be saved.
