Hahaha is this guy serious?

[Dreadful]

Man I'll never get this done by next deadline ..... some very valid points cactus .
Though some shops give back through sponsorship and r&d ...if we left that to ebay we'd all be on ag bikes with pitbike frames stuck on em.

The other is I think crew are more pissed about the claims of 800 worth the extras and 300 fast ace shock etc etc ....I understand there is a place in the market for these bikes ... just think they should be advertised as an entry level bike ....that way crew wouldn't be so crushed when it breaks and they come here and everybody tells em they're shit .

I wasn't defending that guy , I fully agree with what you're saying 100% ....... I think you'll find that he's covered by this quote : [The main thing we need to fight against are the people who charge Ferrari prices but offer '87 Commodore value ....... ] Exaggerating value , HP figures , general bike or part description , specifications , carb sizes etc also falls into that category .....

I try hard to not throw dirt on anyone's bike once they own it .... doing so can only put people off Mini Riders .... at a time when we want to encourage and hang on to new members ....

I think one of the main things to advise people is to buy bikes that have parts that are transferable onto better quality frames .. ie CRF or KLX plastics , tank and seat ... at least then if the frame bends or breaks it's easy to swap all of the other parts over to a new stronger frame .... Most of the parts off Atomics and twin spar frames are useless unless you buy another stock frame ... I think that's one of the main reasons why people don't like them ...

All good bruz .... difficult but necessary

I just think it's really important we do it right which means I won't get it done in time for issue 26 as the deadline is creeping .... all good I'll bang out somethin else for 26 .

This will give us time to do it right for issue 27.....Cactus as usual you are dead on the money and really appreciate your help ,you know more about these things than most I have met in the industry brother and don't know if I'd take on this particular fight without ya keep it comin .

That goes for everyone else too .....cheers.
