jmaccelari Posted April 7, 2014 Share The guys at SSpecialized must be morons. After p*ssing off everyone recently with the 'Roubaix' debacle, they're at it again, but with 'Allez': http://road.cc/conte...#comment-244568 The words don't even SOUND the bloody same! It's a pity SSpecialized are such a bunch of litigious twats. I like Omega-Pharma-Quickstep (especially Tom Boonen), but watching the Ronde van Vlaanderen on Sunday, I was rooting for anyone but them to win. The thought of a SSpecialized winning was too much for me.. Edited April 7, 2014 by jmaccelari V12man and Brogue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted April 7, 2014 Share Really ironic when you consider that Mike Sinyard started his company by basing his first mass-production bike on someone else's design. danielecafiso, Hairy and GoLefty!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellar Posted April 7, 2014 Share If NeilPryde re-name it to Alizee, and sell it with pics of the delicious lady, I'll buy six. GoLefty!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoLefty!! Posted April 7, 2014 Share Alizee, yeah baby put me on that list. Specialised will never see a dime of my money. Pity NeilPryde doesn't want to take them on but having been involved in other sports where they market products its just not their corporate style. danielecafiso, Spoke101 and Cellar 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rock Posted April 7, 2014 Share saw this a a few days ago, still cant believe it, probably cos their loyal customers cant pronounce 'allez' properly (someone better tell me how to pronounce Alizé properly please ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the tech world - the guys LOVE to litigate in respect of patents, in order to crush competition and gain a competitive advantage.

Bat-ass Posted April 7, 2014 Share Specialized should rather focus this energy and money on the fight against fakes. They should pool some resources with Pinarello, Time and the other brands that are suffering the counterfeit rot and fight it together.
