Why on earth have they set their sights so low? Since they are trading on a brand with racing heritage and reputation for quality, why aim straight for the bottom end of shitdom?
Surely even the biggest hipster fule knows that £300 bike is going to be a teensy weensy bit crap.
Just look at the price of some basic but usable wheels, bars saddle, post, stem, cranks etc, add it up take it away from £300 take away some profit and ask yourself how good is £50 frame going to be?
Poor buggers must be desperate.
