That's my guess exactly, but I probably would have struggled to word it as well. I will say though, that I'm guessing Zip's annual display of their elite special forces Speed Weaponery team at Interbike and other shows probably runs a pretty penny, and that all gets passed on to the consumer. It is quite an impressive tactically strategic display of one-up-manship. Excellent!
