While we were at MADE last week, Neil circled back after interviews to ask a few follow-up questions. The first is one was deceptively simple: “Which bike industry standard do you hate the most, and which do you love?”

The responses ran the gamut, from strong endorsements to eye-rolls and hot takes, underscoring how much taste, style, and experience shape a builder’s perspective. Watch the video below for a lively mix of opinions that might surprise you (or confirm your suspicions), with more quick-hit follow-ups dropping later in the week or early next.

Thanks for tuning in! We’d love to hear your thoughts. What’s your most hated bike standard, and what’s your favorite? Leave a note in the conversation below…
