Coz you'll be in the bike trailer industry by then Red
Being serious...we are all to blame.....but at our own cost eventually :\ .......i got my missus one of those 70's egg pod swivelly thingys...about £600, nice red upholstery., fibreglass shell, swivel base....lovely.........a month later she is in it and the pigeon shit weld from China gave way & she came tumbling off the base
.So i kicks off..bla bla......gets a replacement.....replica iconic Poet Sofa.......2 months later......our pals are sat on it........foccin leg snaps off & they tumble onto the floor
.........got my foccin money back....i sit on the floor now :b You get what you pay for but some of this shit isnt that much cheaper considering the dramatic drop in quality
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
