But the hook is "lasting forever" is not the same as "the last bike you'll ever buy".

When your frame cracks for no apparent reason and you're demi god frame builder washes their hands of you you'll be so embarrassed that you'll walk away from cycling forever. No more bikes for you.
When I first came to Bike Forums in May 2014, I was told to have thick skin in the Road Cycling forums. Now I see why. OK. I'll take what I have coming.
