I kinda doubt people will just start to see GT as a top shelf brand all of a sudden just because they want to position themselves as one. Making your bikes more expensive isn’t going to change your brand perception, just means less people will buy it because the value is worse compared to the competition.

My GT story; In the years 2000-2001, I was working as a team technician and road manager for Schwinn Toyota RAV4 Racing, GT also was owned by Questor at the time. Our challenging experience began in August 2001 during a World Cup race in Arai, Japan. My company credit card was suddenly declined, and we started hearing rumors from the United States that Schwinn/GT was going bankrupt. Despite having our hotel pre-paid, we—myself and team members Elke, Leigh D, and Deldycke—found ourselves in a precarious situation. The office was giving us vague reassurances about potential loans and future payments, but...

You can rip on their English translation skills all you want, but I'll wager it's a helluvalot better than your Mandarin. Their derailleur architecture looks more aligned to Sunrace's RDM series, just with a battery pack and servo rather than a pulley and housing stop.

Apparently both Jewetts spotted on Giants recently, as reported a few pages back. So plenty of room at PFR now for some junior females!

I must have missed something. What happened?

They're putting him into cryogenic hibernation, to be awakened in the year 2055 when GT returns.

If PON were planning to sell it they probably wouldn't be clearing the inventory and turning off the lights. Phil mentioned in the video that they already turned down one offer (from a, presumably now former, employee) to buy it and keep it running. It's being shelved and who knows whether we see it again.

Danny landing at Norco Brage will do some sick viking shit like forge a bike out of fuckin Swords or something and put a set of Bombers on it. Hell yeah!

It's only knockoff if it comes from China. Otherwise its just sparkling IP theft.

I wasn’t asking a question. Hence the “!” at the end. Was poking the “destroy China and all of her kind”gang 😉 The volume of negs speaks er volumes though 😅

You’re missing the point. It’s only knockoff if it comes from China. Anyone else can pull this shit and no-one would bat an eyelid. No. One. No I’m not going to buy one of their ders, but it is hilarious how publicly quick to offence some people get. Genuinely looking forward to see how it fares in the review though. Curious to why Madrone and Hopp are allowed to get away with what they’re doing!

Super bummer news about GT if true, but I did actually lol when I read this.

Hans Rey can finally retire though

No, no, no. It's not your fault. Don't beat yourself up over it. It's your daughter's fault. Blame her!

hopefully Brage winds up with a good sponsor.
