While it’s possible to get another MUSA bike for cheaper than a MUSA Rivendell, it won’t ever magically morph into a Rivendell. So there’s that.
I don’t, however, think it’s ludicrous to have a conversation about the price change. Clearly, Grant knew it would be a big deal because he mentioned it a few times prior to it actually happening. I’m assuming he’s worried about how the pricing will affect business, and I’m guessing he also kept prices where they were for so long (years!) because of said worry. I also don’t think anyone has been out of line in voicing opinions on either side. Bikes are awesome. They’re also expensive. (And they should probably be even more expensive!) That’s the dance that Rivendell has danced so graciously all these years, and I appreciate the thoughtfulness and transparency that goes into their decision-making. I’m not really sure what sort of a contribution this was, but I tried.
