Wow. Can't quite wrap your mind around it? Let me try to help. You are on a list called Rivendelll Bicycle Works Owners Bunch.
Conveniently, serendipitously even, the owner and founder of RBW wrote a post a couple of days ago that expounds on some of the motivations behind his business. Some of those reasons include not selling stuff he doesn't think his customers need, or that he believes could be capable of harming them. The OP, having gotten recommendations about another company, Islabikes, that sounded like they might share some of this approach toward doing business, was dismayed to see evidence recently appear that seems to contradict this, yes, assumption. In the world I live in, thankfully, there are still a few businesses that exist for reasons in addition to making a profit, and will not, in fact, sell the consumer whatever they want. Sadly, it does appear that Islabike, until recently a contender, does not fall into this category. Hence the thread discussion. Hope this helps dissipate some of the confusion.
