What I don't understand is the misspelling of, for example, "SHIMANO" as "SIHMANO" or "SHIMENG" - is this just plain sloppiness or a calculated approach to keep Shimano from going after them? Do they have some sort of legal defense if they're selling componentry under "SIHMANO" vs "SHIMANO"? If you're ripping off legit companies, why not go all in?
I think it's sloppiness. I mean, "Comb ass" vs. "Compass"?
