How about some context for that insanity? Where/what is that? It doesn't quite look like Virgin, Utah to me.

I've been waiting a few weeks to see if anyone else has heard the same news I got on Undead production but nothing.

Anyone else get told that production has started?

I can't believe you guys are still without frames or any word about frames or any word if the company is still in business or............... Wake the f*ck up Evil.

I find it hard to understand the mentality of those that don't think what Evil did is a big deal, and I don't even own an Evil, so I don't have a dog in this fight.

Who said it wasn't a big deal?

Should I be throwing a tantrum about it? I have bigger issues in life than a bike frame. This is an inconvenience at its worst.

Your face.
So, heres what I don't get.

Lets say you bought a TV. 65" plasma. It breaks. You take it back to bestbuy. It dissapears for a year and a half, they don't tell you anything about it. You'd lose your goddam mind. You'd flip. Lawsuits. Death threats. Firebombings.

Yet, Evil is doing the same thing, and everybody is calm about it?

I don't get it.

Because Bestbuy's promised every customer with the broken plasma a cutting edge 3D holographic TV that gives oral sex when you watch porn...

Then it'll make you a sammich.

Because 'bro-ism' is alive and well in the cycling scene, especially from the consumers. It's the same reason Intense got away with misaligned frames and obviously miscalculated force vectors: Calling out a bike company isn't the bro thing to do, and kool-aid tastes great!

Even funnier - One user who has posted numerous times in this thread decided that he needed to call Kevin at Evil and whine that I mentioned this whole disaster was pretty pathetic.

Bro-ism indeed.

My Bro-ism is for the shop I bought the bike from, they're taking care of the warranty for me and they've taken care of me in the past. Three guys own the shop; they know me personally and vice versa its a far cry from a Best Buy size company.

I don't know Kevin nor have I ever talked to him, I dealt with Gabe when he was there and he helped me out when I needed it. I hope they have the same level of service when they have bikes available.

If I don't end up getting a frame from Evil I'm sure the shop I bought my frame from will take care of me in some way. There's no point in wasting energy threatening Evil or freaking out at shop guys since there are no frames for ANYONE. If they start getting sold before warranty frames get handed out then I'll light a molotov cocktail.

If I buy a Samsung TV from Best Buy and its a hunk of **** do I go after Samsung? No, I go to Best Buy deal with them and they deal with Samsung. Kevin replies to the shop I use I'm sure he replies to other shops inquiries. The shops are the ones with leverage against Evil since they'll be selling and promoting their bikes after this **** storm.

Please do tell who you think did it. I wont lie I did have a conversation with Kevin about your comments in the WC La Bresse thread, but you knew that and i'd love to see who your suggesting did this (whatever it is)

...and to horror business I never said it wasnt a big deal, i said it is what it is. nothing more, being angry doesnt get a bike any faster that being cool with the situation. Im lucky, I bust ass freelancing and have been fortunate have bikes to ride.

If you think i've mentioned something further than the la bresse thread your wrong. but you can go **** yourself all the same.


...and my communication with Kevin post la bresse thread has been 3 emailing just asking about the status of frames. Funny how I said I thought you made a bitch ass comment, then even apologized later for having taken it out of context, yet you seem to think I'm running around giving a **** what you say/do.
