I hope you didn't read my OP to say this. What did I say, "slightly below the horizon?" Everyone who was at Serotta does impeccable work, who've spun off into their own brands. If anything, they took what was best about Serotta, and jettisoned the rest. "The rest" is unfortunately a lot of business decisions constituted over several decades, that leads to where the new bikes carrying 'Serotta' on the downtube carries with it- all that- for good or for bad.
That's the best allusion to Allen I've seen in a long time. Brilliant reference. One of my all-time fave movies.
