Just a personal take:
Realistically, what does this mean? And how does it reflect the shifts happening in the cycling industry right now? We’re seeing more and more frame builders expanding beyond high-end, made-to-order offerings and moving toward more standardized manufacturing. Two things come to mind right away: first, a decline in demand for expensive, custom-built frames; and second, the ongoing tariff complications, which are pushing local manufacturers to diversify their offerings and become more competitive across a broader range of price points. What do you think?
