Except while the money is probably great, he doesn't need it. He may want it, but certainly doesn't need it. And he has been merging art culture and bikes for at least 40 years. I don't know why that gets anyone's knickers in a twist. The Haring behind his desk would get him at least a couple dozen Ferraris. The Haring Laser is probably worth at least one alone.

I see no problem with the baton exchange.
Almost 40 years since 1983, if that is how one wants to count.
Time to be enjoying an espresso at an inviting spot of your choice.

Anything made in Taiwan these days is going to a fairly high end frame. Cost of labor, coupled with factories with ~30yrs of experience. If you want low-end, look for China, Vietnam, Malaysia production.
