Holy Crap!

Another book.

I did not buy the TJM based on price. I could have bought the Calmini and paid $300 to ship it had I wanted to.

I bought the TJM for two reasons: weight and the uber-solid frame connection. Anybody who's seen how the TJM connects to the frame knows it has well engineered bractetry. This put less stress on the frame horns. To me this, this is more important than the thicker metal.

I have never pushed the TJM on anybody. I have only presented it as an option.

That's a far cry from trying to shove a product down people's throats by writing books on how they will be going against this fabled "consensus" if they buy an alternative product.

Sorry, man but that's just lame. [ThumbsDown]
