Well you're not really understanding what I'm saying...
Worth and value are ultimately subjective.
I'm not arguing that a £30 chinese part is the same as £300 part, in my opinion there isn't A £270 difference.
I have genuine a specialized s-works bar stem combo(I bought second hand) that a had an insane rrp. Yet in terms of performance it's no stiffer than the cheap chinese carbon that I've used.
I don't personally agree with having the logos printed on either.
But yeah like I said, whatever people are willing to pay... -
@carbonsinglespeed You really picked that up and ran with it, didn't you?
Put simply - you get what you pay for. If you paid £30 for a part, it's patently a £30 part, not a £300 one.
It is (literally) impossible to argue with that, it's basic market forces stuff. That is my point.If you want to buy a £30 carbon part, then those are your dice to roll, but it just seems a bit pony to want someone to paint a logo on it to make it look like you have £300 to throw at it. Bit like sticking a Ferrari badge on your fiesta.>
It sounds like you aren't familiar with how 'brands' work...
