You know honestly I am just as dumbfounded as Skenry! 
I think the original feelings expressed were ones of betrayal; they bought a 
bike that suited their needs, but the company introduces a bike that suits the 
needs of someone else, a bike that they take some objection too because of what 
it's made out of!? As I understand it they still make the other bikes that they 
liked, they've just expanded their offerings,  not sure why that's a problem!? 
Don't like carbon fiber? Fine don't buy it! Don't think the company should sell 
CF bikes? Fine, buy the company and discontinue them. But, otherwise it's 
presumptuous to enforce your values on them.
There's the old saying that money talks & BS walks. Obviously, customers 
expressed a desire to buy expensive kids "racing" bike, they are merely 
fulfilling that need! Good for them! If they hadn't someone else would have!
Incidentally, if you read the Blug regularly Grant has expressed a desire to 
build bikes for kids, I believe he back burnered the idea due to cost concerns. 
 I believe he was working on that about the time he was working on the 
development of the Clems.
After the tandems and Roscoe Bubbes are done maybe he will try again!?
