Man. You guys are a tough crowd! I actually thought I had been a bit too hard on the guy.
Yes, the question is a bit flippant. But they all tend to be, one way or another. I think there's an "I'm going to send that jackass a question to shut him up!" followed up with an "oh shit! he actually used it!" period of regret a lot of the time.
One point...we don't know the guys financial situation. Bikes are expensive. Maybe that Specialized is all he could manage? It's easy to tell somebody to go buy a new bike, but sometimes harder to execute.
Sorry Dogger!
