Think of medicine. You have all the knockoff brands and they are actually produces in the same facilitys minus the T stamp.

um, think of some recent items from china... anti-freeze laced toothpaste, lead infused baby toys, cribs that collapse when looked at. legitimate companies usually follow some set of safety standard - which is some of what you pay for, but a lot of companies take as many shortcuts as possible to make something that "looks" normal but cost 1/10th to manufacture...
also, it should be noted the wheels in the link are remanufactured ( "repaired" ) and not new.
