And like I said, this wouldn't be as big of a deal if he would have told me there would be a 3-4 week wait. Doesn't matter how sweet they're gonna be if I can't get them, right? I would have just ordered some Atomlabs for now and bought Nem-Pros when they were actually available. And since I STILL don't know what is going on, I don't know what to do. Might call Atomlab today though and drop another fuggin $60 on bars. They just opened the park as of today and I'm sick of watching.chill out guys, like dex said brad is a one man operation and needs some time off too...
Brad is busy making tens of frames, forks and components for me and the Australian Market. Give the guy a break. Im sure when he is done with our massive order he will get stuck into everythign else he has on his plate.And like I said, this wouldn't be as big of a deal if he would have told me there would be a 3-4 week wait.

i was given a ship date. 2 ship dates to be exact, one 3 weeks ago and another 2 weeks ago. havent heard anything since. i love my DM but it sucks when youre promised something and it doenst show up with no explaination.hmm well tons of other companies do this ALL the time. hell the distributers will do this. if your going to order something, get a set shipping date no matter who it is. simple as that. I ordered a set of rims from sun a year ago, paid up front and didnt ask for a shipping date. 3 1/2 months later they finally showed up, by this time i had gotten other rims. just because you can buy something does not mean it will ship that day. check before you order stuff in the future from ANYWHERE
Hey, I've done the Ride-This waiting game too! 5 WEEKS for a seat! Haven't been back since. I'd pay twice as much for something to get it when they say I will. Remember when pizzas used to be free if they were late???This turned out to be an interesting topic, not just of Nemesis but in general. The way I see it, (which is bleak) is no matter if you're given dates or a status of availability. We're still at the Mfr, Dist. or online store's mercy. I ordered from Ride-This, some rims which appeared to be in stock, hell that's what it said. Anyways it wasn't in stock and had to wait till they got em in from the dist and then ship to me. Wasn't happy with that one.
Holy crap !!
Ok I just this second logged on to Ride monkey after a week of keeping my head down and finishing up the last 10 Death-mobiles of out latest run of 20 , so needless to say I have been crazy busy and haven't had time to waste on the internet .

great explanation that the way it truly is, but remember the small guys need to make money, and u have to remember that when u by stuffExactly.
Let's say you have a 30 minute lunch break and all you want is one silly taco. You've only got a buck and Taco Johns and Taco Bell are in the same parking lot. The TJ's manager comes out and waves you in, saying his tacos are better(which we know is true!) and you'll have them fast. You pay for your taco and step to the right to wait patiently. In the meantime, a bus comes through the drivethru and orders $500 in Tacos. They decide to fill this order first cuz it's good money and it will pay the bills. Meanwhile I don't know about the bus and I'm standing there like a douche waiting for a single taco. I'm now outof money so I can't go next door and get a different taco, while maybe not as good, is still a taco and will do the job, and I'm late for work. Would you be pissed?
At the very least, you're prob not going to eat there again.
That's all(well, I need bars, too) I needed to hear. If you can't supply a product then info is the ONLY thing that should come next. I HAD a set of GI bars, but loaned them to a bud about 10 minutes before doing this to the ones I replaced them with:
BTW, these are built by Solid... solid they were not. Haha, and I bent them with my back, my spine to be exact! still hurts...
yikes! I guess those bars didn't last that long for ya. Sorry about that and I hope your spine isn't too hosed. May I ask how that happened? The backsweep and angles on those weren't really what I spec'd but Aaron @ Solid did make an attempt for me. He did a 2nd batch and about 3 of them were sorta close to the numbers I wanted - I'm running one pair on my USB now and they feel good.That's all(well, I need bars, too) I needed to hear.
