They could actually make money on the deal by certifying specific equipment
for use in Junior or beginner races, a la NJS, and charging the manufacturer
for that certification.

Eric,
Checked the price of a high end BMX bike?
How about identical bikes like in some forms of auto racing or like the
Little 500 Roadmasters? Trek is so huge now they could make a stock junior
bike. Everybody would have the same tires and everything. A component
manufacturer would have to be on board so the same stuff would be available
year after year. Wouldn't it be nice to have interchangeable stock parts?
Hello, bike shop? I need a stock junior rim and spoke set.
The only negative I can think of is being forced to buy your race bike from
only Trek or whoever.
