On the other hand, they have their super versatile and compatible cranks which seem great. They seriously offer something that not a lot of other brands do and it easily fits most bikes out of the box.

I mean their latest stuff is so weird and excentric. Like this rear derrailleur which requires a proprietary braze on the frame.

I just don't get how the philosophy of these products go together.
