Be afraid

I hope this works out for them. The small guy owned by the big guy tends to lead to bad things from my experience.

I hope they break the trend.

So would now be a bad time to tell everyone that you and I are going to co-build a bunch of bikes ASAP?

Whew, glad that I secured my Titus MotoLite before the beancounters started running the place! :)

From VN story:

"Titus, based in Tempe, had been owned by Vyatek Sports. The company was founded in 1991 and makes road and mountain bikes in stock and custom sizes, from aluminum, carbon and titanium."

So what's the difference? As the Who said, "meet the new boss, same as the old boss..."

class several years ago when they began having frames produced in Taiwan. Chris Cocalis then sold the company and the folks who bought it grew the brand and unloaded it. Grow and prosper or stagnate and die... there' no going back for Titus.
