Do they really know about this forum?

 

Do they really "select" this forum to advertise on or do they just pay a fee for online advertising to some smart ass and the google clever people have their ad appear randomly on every cycling related website on the WWW?

yep the ads come through google ads - so CRC just pay google for impressions and google does the smart-matching

I gotta say that is a little to close for my liking

Now the unknowing public at large is probably going to think we stole the name thehub from chainreaction cycles . I can now see why companies litigate for all they've got to protect their brand names , if you let it slide before you know it you have an uphill battel trying to convince everyone it was your idea originally.

 

Oh wait there is a conspiracy at foot , admin on thehub.co.za has actually always been chainreactioncycles , they started thehub as an underhand way to way grow their market in Sa......They have been surreptitiosly pushing our buttons and making us froth over crappy crank brothers products and 60% off Xt brakes when they know perfectly well they only ever have the front one in stock and we'll end up buying any old sh1te once we on the site just to get free shipping. WTF!!!!!
