Sadly it probably is.  However that's a useful website.
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

It is indeed true, a friend of mine has been waiting for two years. And he reports the same kind of service listed in that forum post, unreturned calls, broken promises...

Hes still 16k out of pocket 2 years later.

Its ridiculous!!!

They are still sponsoring the firework display at the festival of 1000 bikes at Mallory Park.
If they have the same flash stand as last year it might be interesting to ask a few "questions"
