I read with interest Steven Maaslands comments on what he believes to be the cynical manipulation of the "Bates" cycle name.
Perhaps Steven would care to elaborate on the recent, or even complete history of Bates Cantiflex frames. When he has done that he can then explain where the cynicism comes in to the equation.
I do not know Steven and to my knowledge he does not know any one who is involved currently with the production of Bates frames.
The frames we are building are Bates frames, no cynisism, just frames.
