I'm not too sure why people diss the chinabikes, especially if they don't even own one. The only thing I can think of is that they figure that if they had to pay $6000 for a bike to ride, nobody should be allowed to have fun on a bike they only paid a grand for. The other argument they give is that they have no resale value... Heck, buy a brand new Honda and ride it for two or three years, it will be worth a couple of grand less than it was new, which is more than you paid for the chinabike in the first place. Kind of makes resale value a moot point
