N2 - In certain models of composite quarks and leptons the precolor scale Λp is bounded in the range λ·(20-30)TeV{less-than or approximate}Λp{less-than or approximate}250TeV, where λ is naively of order 1. The lower bound is generally model independent. The upper bound is a cosmological constraint. We give general conditions for its validity and show that it applies in potentially realistic models.
