    We’ve all read your comments, even the deleted one and we’re saying you’re just wrong and your comment was at least partially about this.

    Nothing in this comment is useful, you’re now just throwing jabs at people for no reason and you have thrown away all your credibility along with it.

    Deleted comment:

    You’re absolutely right, but this ad looks like it’s maybe late 80s, probably early 90s, so give them a little bit of slack. They were just figuring out what really good bike racks need to look like.

    Also, bikes at that time were a lot more basic and cheaper, there’s not much need to be overly cautious about them.

    Edit: Also also, the guy who drew this was kind of a big guy in his day, so they either got him for free or paid him way too less, either way they didn’t have the means to tell him „hey that doesn’t look right good, draw it again, please?“…
