@MightyGuruYoghourt13 күн бұрын
I don't have enough experience of Chinese made bikes, but the Murgatroyd's Benelli is showing no signs of deteriorating after a year and 4500 miles. Might be too early to judge the newer bikes with regards to reliability and longevity, but all major manufacturers have at least some problems in that department, it seems to me.
@SloboloboVFR14 күн бұрын
It amazes me that they didn't see this coming. The big manufacturers have been churning out overpriced tech filled garbage for years. I can buy a second hand bike that does everything the new model does for a fraction of the cost. These Chinese brands are making brand new bikes that do everything their rivals do for much less. Its only going to be good to force companies to realise they cant just jack up the price and fleece people anymore. The other huge problem in the UK is insurance companies charging massive amounts to insure young riders. Expensive new bikes they cant insure vs a car that costs the same but can fit their mates in. Its a no brainer. As soon as bikes become a cheap mode of transport again the industry will have a resurgence.
