Never attribute to malice that which can be attributed to stupidity.

First Ride: the Trek Slash+ Sets a High Bar
@panaphonic: The average monthly new car payment in the US is currently $735.
Just enough money to buy the base model Slash+ in a year if you live somewhere with cheap/no sales tax.

First Ride: Specialized Launches New Status 140 and DH 170
MSRP on that is $400 more, and it has significantly worse brakes, shock, and drivetrain.

Review: Forge+Bond Shift EM - A US-Made Carbon Wheelset for $1250
@CobyCobie: That’s a load of BS. If you hit hard enough to “explode” a carbon rim, you would have absolutely annihilated an aluminum wheel as well.
@GTscoob: Because many companies openly have estabilshed a precident of no question replacement for their high end carbon wheels. It doesn’t matter if you call it warranty or crash replacement.

These are probably the most competitive wheels compared to WAO that I’ve seen in a while.
They’re $250usd cheaper than the WAO setup, ($1250 vs $1499) while also claiming to offer the same warranty.
They are a bit heavier but theoretically thermoplastic composites can have better performance characteristics than thermosets.
