Woosh! No shit. It's always cost and profiit. So they'll offshore things using that justification, but when that profit boost is minimized, they bring it back and talk just about how it's some kind "returning to our roots".

If that happens, our bikes are the tiniest of problems to come. If China attacks Taiwan then the shit hits the fan for everybody. WW3. No bikes for us. Just bullets and blood.

Price has EVERYTHING to do with the frequency of purchase. It's called amortization.

It would be great to see more companies returning to their countries. But it would be possible ONLY if people agree to higher prices and stop buying a new bike every 2 years.

Yup, can confirm, I rebuilt mine and a few other Guide brake sets, both calipers and levers. The choice of spare parts could be even better (each and every spare part available by itself would be just out of this world, but it'd be an SKU nightmare, I know that) and the Rock Shox sealkits are a bit of hit and miss lately (at least for the Super Deluxe), but spare parts, servicability and clear instruction manuals are the reason Sram gear is VERY high on my list of components to buy. That and spare part avilability, this is also...

You and I didn't write about support or lack thereof. We were discussing parts availability, repairability and so on. Shimano is not repairable. It doesn't matter how good their support is. They can offer you a new brake caliper but they will not offer you a piston as a part. These ARE disposable items.

You are correct. But it is customer who is to blame. People are throwing things out nowadays way sooner than it is necessary. A new bike every 2 years. That's why they did some math and it came out that they can introduce "lifetime" warranty. The subject is very complex. It is a dynamic relation between producers and customers. Shimano for example makes great gear but their disc brakes are absolutely not serviceable. You cannot replace a piston there. And yet still people are buying their brakes. And not Formula or Hope or even Sram where you can replace every...

Does this kind of "lifetime warranty" realy different than normal warranty? Firstly most mtb products are incompatible after 5 years, this is hyperbole of course but you know what i mean. Second, most manufacturing errors are exposed with in a few rides if not with in a season or two of riding. What is realy useful is the guarantee that spare parts would be available after years of use,which means less products thrown to the garbage because of designed or planned obsolescence. Also just a plug, please listened to paul aston's downtime podcast interview. A few interesting inside info on...
