Credit where it's due, Pon bought out Santa Cruz way before private equity realized they had too much capital sitting around and needed to invest it in get rich quick schemes, Pon seems to actually be intent on knowing the industry rather than hurling cash at garbage and then firing everybody and writing it off as a loss when it goes tits up.
No? their stuff is pretty solid. I've got a couple of their handlebars and an older set of rims.
while we may sit here and disagree with some of the design choices SC is making, by all accounts their business seems to be doing well. so i can't really disagree with you on that front.
EL OH EL
Does anyone know anyone who ever bought/sold from there? I liked the idea, but it always seemed to be the most expensive way to buy a second hand bike.
I tried selling my GG frame to them early 2023 and they wouldn't bite. So they weren't total idiots lol.
jokes on them i bought a GG frame this year.
Every once in a while I saw the kind of weird shit I like on discount for like 70% off, but then shipping was always $40 so I never bought anything
its the newest bike I own by a large margin. and first time in quite sometime i acquired a bike less than 5 years old.Jokes on who?
It was between GG and Transition when I bought my last bike. Only the fact that I was able to sit on a Scout that I decided to go with Transition
I don’t know, riding it in elevator mode seems like a great way to pull off some sick manuals
A while ago, but on two different occasions bought new DH wheels from there for a couple of different bikes that were brand new and > 50% off. Close enough we could collect to avoid shipping too.
