Payday on the horizon

I don't get why they are so expensive, I know that they are good quality and I'm taking about the Assos but they are only made of certain materials.
The materials and production costs can't be that high to warrant that money surely?

Paying off the Allez I bought last month.

Sucks. Paying out and getting nothing in return. Where's the fairness in that...

You got a good bike, what more do you want?

 

[vickster]

No, they spend a lot development but probably more on branding, advertsiing, sponsorship and making a profit...

As an example, I was out with my CC this morning and was using a cheap pair of shorts because I didn't have any other clean ones and came back with a sore backside. Doesn't happen with decent shorts. You think Assos are steep? Don't even look at Rapha...
