The CHinese and other Asian bike makers would certainly benefit from it.
I would not call it a hoax , so much as I would call it a bluff (as in 5 card poker). We will see lots of this going foward in trade releationships now that we have decided to quit dropping and bending over. Nothing to get emotional about (not refering to you wheelbender), its just the way business is done until a agreement is made.
