I wouldn’t buy a car that Surly or Trek made, I’m definitely not going to buy a bike that Porsche makes.
I know this is a joke, but it did make me start thinking about it.
I'd probably buy a car that Surly made. It'd be very outdated and simple, but also unkillable and practical, kinda like the original Toyota pickup truck.
I wouldn't buy a Trek car purely because you know they'd make the front grill enormous specifically so they can make the trek logo bigger.
Okay, your point about a car Surly might make is well taken
That thinking is a bit broken. A car is a complex mechanical, electronic and geometric system, and a bike is the same just smaller. I don't see what a car brand such as Porsche couldn't do better than a bike manufacturer honestly. They have all the manufacturing techniques, the simulation software, carbon weave experts, metal foundry suppliers, designers, you name it.
