Yes,

@mammal:
No.
I am not.
It's just that the longevity is propotionaly oposite to the price!
For all kids out there.
It's a fact that high quality gear will keep rising beyond stratosphere. Who can argue with this? (not me).
Also (and last)
I can see that instead of considering what i wrote (agreeing is NOT optional), some prefer to be rude. well....

@teagues:
I agree.
The "relativeness" factor is quite... wide!
And to close this,
I NEVER assumed that we have to keep on ridding bad bikes with squirrely geometry and small wheels. And jus to be absolutelly clear, i'll re-phrase my argument like that:
As prices go up, so the quality has to follow. Longevity has to be among these "values"...
I cannot describe it simpler & at the same time i cannot image who could disagree.
So,
Happy trails!

@mammal:
Hmmm,
the Bianchi seems to be the most robust of all! (you seem to underestimate a really good frame... why's that?).
Anyway,
I am not unreasonable. i know from first hand that dirt ridding claims flesh & parts!
I just say that longevity should follow high price.
It's that simple.
