Hmm, I see what you mean, but we're hardly the paragon of insight into general consumer needs here are we? We're all a bunch of bike wankers who spend too much time and money on our obsession, so hardly unbiased opinion.
I'd even go as far as saying 30mm bouncy bits are more beneficial to your normal user, hence why the likes of the Specialized Sirrus sold so damned well.
@Lolo In the same way no one really needs the latest iPhone triple mega XXXS 17. Doesn't stop people buying it.
I mean, do I need expensive tan walls? Not really. Does it make my bike look the fucking bomb? Hell yeah!
