Just when you thought auto companies figured out this was a stupid idea another one goes for it.

Kent bikes? anyone heard of 'em?

Yeah, a friend sent me the link to this site today: http://www.cadillacbicycles.com/

The all mountain looks like an 02 giant AC Air to me. Linkage looks identical, geometry looks similar, etc.

love the "priced under 2000"...... i guess thats care sales mentality.....

looks to be spec'd pretty good..... thats not usually the case for OEM rebadged bikes.....

You would have to get some dub spinners, a few TVs, and a sound system.

Yay cadillacs, oversized, underdamped suspension and poor handling, guzzle energy... wait, this does not sound like what you want in a bike!

which has created a Cadillac Bicycles unit and is producing a line of mid- to high-end bikes. The bikes cost $500 to $1,900, according to the company.



UH huh....mid to high end.....1,900 is a mid-level frame to me....sheesh....I spend less than that, and I can kiss it goodbye to the breakage gods in 4-6 weeks... :mumble:
