Okay, their painted open mold frames are only priced at $900 and $1400, so they might have been given a free pass but then there is this.

It's a cheesy imitation of Ferrari right down to the font. How stupid would you feel riding around with that font on your bike.

Then there is this:

It is on a t-shirt they are selling. Funny, but evidently they ripped the image off and stuck their own logo on it.

The final damnation is this:

Yeah, they are actually selling those bars. Maybe it's not surprising since by the look of this t-shirt, I think I know where Michael Ball is hiding out.

Oh, and http://www.stradalli.com actually goes to http://www.carbonroadbikebicyclecycling.com. Can anymore keywords be stuffed into a domain name?

Yeah, pretty cheesy. I met Thomas Steinbacher a couple three years ago at Interbike, I think he's missing a chromosome. It's not a mistake about the Ferrari and girls marketing blitz, that way for a reason.

Traditionalists are pessimists about the future and optimists about the past

...only that the guy's got a ready made castration system in that stem assembly. Clearly no attention to detail other than the babe.
