Jesus christ. You've got an obsession. The fact is the Vulpine was always seen as a Rapha copy cat, trying to cash in without putting in the innovation. In my opinion this has been proven by the very low R&D costs in the accounts and the fact Nick was paying himself a massive wage when the company wasn't even close to making any money. Also in my opinion he wanted the lifestyle without actually building a working business first.
