Interesting read on bicycling.com

 

RE Spez company founder, Mike Sinyard.

PR disaster recovery spin machine at full tilt. To me personally, it's more interesting to see the strategy applied since the Roubaix faceplant.

Love the bit of irony in his surname. Sinyard.

 

I wonder if Zuma's PR spin machine is going to follow the same strat now that the wolves are baying for blood.

good to hear that bullies can be taught a lesson. shuffles off to custom wheel builder in Somerset west

 

Agreed, it was awesome to see how bully war veteran Dan got shown what humility and passion is by the old man Mike Sinyard.

 

Mike (imho) is really only guilty of one thing, leaving his legal work to a team that are over vigilant at times.

Mike should also be quite flattered that even the haters will concede and acknowledge that he has some brilliant products, it must also be quite flattering that others want to copy you.

 

It's that lead and others will follow scenario.

With this storm in a teacup I managed to get me a bike with the big "S" on the front over the weekend....I wanted one more with this going down...Couldn't be happier.

 

PS I am sure that "S" does something for one's avg speed.

Just watched the video, classy move by Mike Sinyard to rescue the **** storm. Don't know if anyone noticed that Dan can't even pronounce the word properly, it's not a Kaiser chiefs hit single
