To be honest I would probably never feel the difference between 90% of bike parts. But I am a magpie and like nice shiny things. Also with brands like Hope and CK customer service is good and they are user serviceable which appeals to me and both tend to have a reputation for reliability. Of course they can get messed up but generally people seem happy with them.
It is nice to get nice things.
