i find it strange that any subculture/scene that receives exposure & gains traction with news media outlets will inevitably cannibalize it's own. Skateboarding, hip-hop, punk/hardcore, 80's revivalism, they all eventually eat their young. I understand why, no one wants to see their clique get co-opted by the masses, and poseurs abound everywhere. Still, it would be good to see people not sweating this stuff so much. One more bike, even if it's only for 6 months or a year, is still better than nothing at all, right?
