You could say the same about cycling and bikes but at least if I buy the wheels Ineos are using, I’m not going to still find myself still putting my bike down a ravine or leaving it short into the water 4 times each ride and wondering what the hell I wasted my money on.
What's the old automotive saying? Something like win on Sunday sell on Monday. Someone help me me out here.

As it relates to this thread, I'm glad I'm just a lowly comsumer buying my own stuff. I have way more control over my equipment choices than the average or even high level professional cyclist. That wouldn't be such a problem, except for for the possible safety issue.
