I suspect that you misinterpret Sheldon's intent. Some months back I posited a similar question to the list regarding a Flandria which I'd recently discovered. Sheldon 'set me straight' in a similar vein, with an appraisal of the item as "bike boom junk". Doubtless he saved me from a foolish expenditure, which would have been aggravated by further costs of upgrading, plus time and effort.
I hope that such scathing criticism of Mr. Browns honest candid assessment does not have a chilling effect on his willingness to offer his educated (and free) advice in the future.
