I think the upshot is he sells his complete bikes for about 600 quid and frames for anything upto 1,200 and at the moment there are a lot of grey market Dolan frames around on ebay I know have bought a few, so if it's not the right colour just get it powdercoated job done track frame below half the price he sells them for,I even got my cycle cross frame from Ribble cycles for 112 quid,and they were doing Dolan track cheap as well,i cant see the problem putting his name on his bikes,he can and he told me so in no uncertain terms.
If he wants to keep his frames high end and exclusive he should not bulk sell them or let them on the free market.
