Specialized

Thought this sticker was hilarious given the Volagi/Specialized hooplah.  Not my bike, but can appreciate the sentiment.  I also think it’s funny that people who will talk your ear off about buying local,  small, artisan, handcrafted, ‘hate Starbucks because they are big’ blah blah blah will also openly rep the big S like it ain’t no thang.  FWIW I’d ride an Enduro or an FSR of some sort if it was free.

In the end all this boycott talk will have zero change on their bottom line given the short term memory of consumers these days (anybody remember the old ‘boycott Burton cuz you can’t patent fun’ movement?), but it’s nice to see a small minority keep the dream alive.  Guy is lucky he didn’t use red stickers for that, would have likely been sent a C&D by big S.
