Subject: [BromptonTalk] Aargh @ "merc"
I saw an example of the "merc" brompton copy for the first time today
- a guy brought his into the shop because it had broken a spoke.
Unbelievable. Several of the parts, incl the rear chain tansioner
looked like they'd just taken a bromptom to bits and made moulds from
its components. I found myself feeling angry with the person who
bought it, and with the people who import it. Guy even had the cheek
to suggest I carry them in stock! Urgh at ethically twisted business
people.

Isn't it odd that he still sold the spoke(s)?
Ethics indeed.
