Shaneezes.. There are a couple of guys on here that hate Moto's with a passion. From the people that actually OWN one, there seems to be nothing but love. So to all the haters who own or work in LBSs (even though there are nice helpful bike techs in my LBS) whining about how Moto's can't be put together properly without a bicycle technician, you have insulted everyone elses intelligence. How the hell did you learn bike mechanics? It's a friggin' bike. You learned by tinkering with it. Not a single part on these REQUIRE an advanced degree in computers or mechanics to put together. Until there are electronic sensors that measures stress on the brakes, cassettes, cranks, chains, stem, fork, frame, tires, rims, cables, hubs, spokes, handlebars, grips, seatposts, saddle, etc...that only a trained certified mechanic needs to diagnose..anyone should be able to figure out how to fix whatever is ailing their ride. If you're feeling threatened by people actually LEARNING to do assembly, repairs, upgrades, etc..themselves, then maybe you need to work on your customer service and stop being such a damn "oh-no-I'm-so-much-better-than-anyone-that-rides-a-Moto" snob.

BTW...
What AMERICAN bike companies cover that? Let me know please. EVEN IF you manufacture your OWN frames (which I doubt) at your LBS, would you offer an UNLIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY? I'd be happy to buy ANY bike with an UNLIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY and thrash the hell out of it so I can get a new one!
