This is debatable. We had to get a new BB shell for a customer with an I-drive 5 a couple months ago. They didn't have any and didn't expect to produce any more. Our warranty guy had to dig in a parts bin of old frames to find one for us.
The frame in question isn't more than 3 years old. 
That joey wyckoff kid deserves the millions, I saw him ripping at diablo once, it was so rad. There was like a 30 foot tall cloud of schralp behind him, and it was raining too.
Why is it good news for sunday owners?
That was more of a hopeful quote that maybe they would buy the parts and maybe, just maybe get them to distributors to sell.
I wonder what Chris Van Dine will ride if this is true.
unless they knew 100% they were going to buy IH than maybe thats why.
Everyone will take pennies on the $, but it's better than nothing, and if the previous owners of IH had their way, that's what we would have gotten (nothing). I'm happy for Dorel / Pacific and if any organization can make something positive of this, well.. they have proven that they can do it. Will be interesting.
No possibility. Funny thing is, if IH had just paid on time (or at all) that number would have been WAAAAY smaller. Oh well, what can you do. There were a lot of positives that came from the IH experience, I learned a lot about the world, how to protect my companies better in business, just general life and business lessons that have helped to give me more perspective than before.
Damn straight!At least it wasn't your bankruptcy
Glad to see some nepetism may have played a part in this running of IH into the ground.
Management must have been cooking up the books and taking advantage of their vendors. I hope some of them end up in jail. By the way, CIT Group itself is currently trying to avoid bankruptcy by getting a bailout.
Yes, something smells for sure.
This isn't new, btw.
Get burned enough times and you get used to it. I used to just about have a panic attack when this sort of thing happened. Being stressed is no way to live, so I just try to do well by others and hope that they reciprocate.
Ooooh.....I can finally chime in again. I've owned the most recent dialed version of the Iron Horse Sunday and got to put in a full, uninterupted weekend of DH riding on the new Turner DW-DHR putting it through some hot laps. Not having to share was awesome. Sending SKC random pics of it on my bike rack and porch was fun too.
SoEastMatt and drkenan have a mini-vid or two, but just berm stuff, nothing thrilling. Here's the aftermath of NC terra firma slam biking!
No. Moe took it back. I was amped to have it for a full weekend to myself though. I know it wants to be back in my arms though...I just know it....Has a lot to do with Dorel, but not really
Let's face it, the DW link made Iron Horse, but the owners were greedy SOB's.
Is the bike yours Butch??
