Bikes aren't for "sports", they're for everyday transportation.

I don't have such strong opinions about how bikes (or other products) should be used. I'm curious, what informed your ideology? Why is the bike such a sacred cow for you?

You're projecting. Why do you have such a strong opinion about how bikes should be used?

>> Bikes aren't for "sports", they're for everyday transportation

That is your comment. I have no opinion whatsoever regarding how bikes should be used.

>>People will eventually get tired of getting ripped off and switch sports.

That is your comment. You obviously DO have an opinion on how bikes should be used.

I have an opinion on the pricing of higher end mountain bikes - I wish they were less expensive. I don't have an opinion on how they (or any bike) are used - bank robbery notwithstanding. You stated that bikes should only be used for transportation.
