The fixed comment I appreciated
It's what was said in chat that I didn't
But hey ho
I dont know what was said in chat this particular time that has got you so riled, however (going for the all out honesty route) yes people (myself included) have discussed certain things regarding you in chat, those things have typically included:
A) That you seem to have been buying and selling a whole lot of bikes in the last 6 months or so and some discussion of this rationale.
B) That some of your purchases dont seem particularly smart in terms of performance gain per pound spent (it is widely aknowledged and commonly stated in chat that whatever suits you is fine, but people have differing opinions and will express them when given a free flowing, fast moving medium like a pub or chatroom) and that you seem to have a thing for "aggresive".
C) Typical trolling (happens to all of us)
D) Most prevalantly, a genuine expression of concern for your wellbeing due to what appears (based on several of your recent threads) to be a trend of under-eating and over exercising etc and certain members of the forum appearing to encourage you in such endeavors without realising that some of your trends might actually be dangeous.
E) That you appear to brush a lot of the smaller but equally important aspects of your health and fitness etc under the carpet whilst focusing on the big things, i.e. you seem to be a "big picture" man, not one for the details.
If you wonder why people say it in chat and not out on the forum, well its quite simple (other than the nature of free flow, fast paced chat), a lot of people have a lot of admiration for you (including those who have talked about you in chat) and people feel that if they are to say things on the forum that they may encounter a "fan club" attitude and just be shouted down. Other than that maybe people feel rude to just hit you up in a pm that you may be offended by, even if the intention is good!
I do not recall anyone ever suggesting that the chinese bike frames are BSO's. I personally wouldnt buy one, I dont fancy having to try to sort out warrantly claims with someone in China, having no crash replacement scheme, having no face to face communication, most likely a lesser level of quality control and the ugly (IMO) carbon weave. Does that mean the bike is poor, hell no, just that I would not buy one. I also wouldnt buy a Specialized or a genuine Pinarello either!
If I have missed something, then please do tell!
