Yeti 303 25th Anniversary Edition Frame Question
- Thread starter b.utters
- Start date
it definitely feels different then a demo, but its not a tank or plowbike or anything, i like mine like a lot...
Why not get the new one? Lighter and stronger
were the 2012 even available? didn't dirtmcgirk have like 4 months of delay with his and ended up getting a different bike?
Is there any chance you can give me an overal description of how it rides?UiUiUiUi said:
The WC carbon is likely to be over $3.8K (pretty sure that's what the 25th anniversary frames were). This frame is going for about $2.5K less than that.MrPlow said:

So is yeti just going to scrap the Alu 303 all together as this year turned out to be such a cluster****?
no idea really, it's just that i have not seen a single 2012 303 anywhere... except for the wc racebikes...
I haven't seen any new frames for sale either. Places like Jenson.com that usually have Yeti stuff didn't have any 303s. I wonder if they had limited stock that sold out fast or if something went wrong on the production side.
Oh I can say absolutely that they had production problems. They ****ed up, changed production houses in Taiwan right before the build, and ass pumped their loyal customers by not being able to produce the frames. Sickens me.
What else they could have done? Give an inferior product to the customers like that one company where the owner had to run to Poland? Return the cash, apologize and offer something in return. You can't produce bikes with magic.
Well I hate Poland too, so that wouldn't work.
They ****ed up. Plain and simple. They never went public with it. A lot of buyers got left high and dry. They needed to go public in March. They chose not to. As far as I know they never did.
I love yeti. Just bought a 2012 SB66. I just wish they were honest about a lot of **** ups they've made.

Sounds like a good deal. If you don't end up getting it and it is a large, send me a pm.
Sorry mate, it's a medium and I did buy it.

Here is a link to a large full bike that is for sale on the same forum. It is in Australia though so I'm not sure how much luck you will have.

Public as in have a giant post on pinkbike? Or inform people sooner? I work in a much different industry but in most cases you try to make it to the last moment. I know you are angry you didn't get your frame but it's not like delays are that uncommon in the bike industry. Though if the contact with them was bad yeah. That's an issue.
