That wavy white line park is around the corner from Omnium and LvH's old warehouses (which used to be almost next to one another) so it's funny that another brand probably went out of their way to get that 'classic cargo' shot.

Ah that makes sense.
Bullitt frames are what you say, stiff (enough), light (very compared to r+m, ua etc, only douse is similar) and they can do the miles.
Couriers only break the newer gen frames from encounter with heavy solid objects and vehicles. They used to fatigue and crack at the seat tube but they fixed that like 8 years ago, maybe more.Some magazine test last year stated they were too stiff and unsuitable for kid carrying, i mean, yeah in comparison to a car. It's like what they wanted was a floppy noodly frame?
Anyways, loads of decent cargos out there to choose from, consumers will decide who survives and who doesn't.

Loads of copies around, thats just the latest one. Like that they went to that same park with the wavy white lines on tarmac that LVH shot some of their official photos on a few years back (or crap, maybe actually Omnium that used that location).
I wouldn't worry, many copies exist, often pricing is really not far off genuine and no accessory support, they naturally come, and then die out again.
Don't forget though, Bullitt is just a very evolved long john thats been around what, 100 years?
