If I may bring this a little bit back on track, it is good and healthy and people are retiring, companies close, new companies open. It would not be good if the only bike builders were people who had started 40+ years ago.

Among customers, there seems to be a pretty even mix of "I want to buy from this builder because he's been at it forever" and "I want to buy from that builder, because he's new and doing something different."

It's great that we have both in the market, and gradually the "new guys" become the "old guys" and the cycle continues.
