I told a few it reminded me of my first Schwinn Stingray back in the '60's!

Banana seat and a nice little bar to smash your grapes on!

Quite amusing for me . I make footrests and was happily selling to MRS.. Malcolm got me an enquirey from Sherco to supply as O.E.M. I duly quoted a crazy price of less than a tenner a pair and didn't get order because I was too expensive. Next years and for several years all Sherco's had my desighn of footrest as standard equipment, I can only guesse they took my desighn to somewhere cheaper (maybe even china) and got it it made up as standard Sherco component. So you see, really all this fuss to me appears like Karma for Sherco. They aren't

the first and they wont be the last to find themselves in this situation, litigation will only serve to embarass them and they may well end up paying costs on top. Back to the game ..if only somebody could make a bike with reliability and build quality of Montesa/Honda rideability of Gas gas and price of Xispa I'll order 2 tomorrow!
