is there any businesses that accidentally farks their customers??? it's like ooppsie... i accidentally farked you...
it's a dog eat dog world out there lar miao... u've been a pus-sy for too long is it...get some dog friends and see how they eat each other...
anyways... however ball busting this is going to sound... they've got a word for that situation with your headset... it's called "proprietary"... you are lucky they did not trademark that shit or it would have costed 10 times more...
based on true story:
- VP components produced a headset VP-A62A
- spez sourcing for a headset... finds VP components
- spez ppl wanna fark customers, use cane creek top cap to disguise VP headset
- spez thinks thats not farked up enough, too paranoid scared if customers buy spare parts elsewhere.
- so the spez ppl decides to glue the crown race onto the steerer
- when customers check out cane creek website, they get the supposedly equivalent set to be used
- turns out, cane creek has different bearing and crown race thickness.
spez a$$holes
