It's good to be King-King Earl that is!
The name Bontrager has been around for a long time and to many it goes hand in hand with Hand Built Bikes and high end components. While Bontrager no longer produces his great hand built hard tails for the general public, the component line lives on. Bontrager components are found on all Trek, Klein and Gary Fisher bikes. Over the past few years the sub catagory "Big Earl" has really come into its own as a freeirde brand to look at for quality, reliable after market parts. I've been riding my 2006 Rocky Switch 2.0 for months now, but leaving anything stock for too long makes Tyler a dull boy........
