I thought I remembered there being one, like Jungle and Stif. But can't find evidence of it now, did I imagine it?

CRC Own Hotlines (distributor) and Decade Europe (distributor) - not the bike model/brand.

From Biketart's Facebook page

Royal Clothing is distributed in the UK by Decade. Chain Reaction Cycles own Decade. CRC are now doing 40% off 2012 Royal Clothing which destroys the brand for shops that spent a lot of money on stock. We've dropped Royal today and have 50% off all stock starting today until it's gone. http://www.biketart.com/300/royal.aspx

Someone's not happy

Problem is there's two 'Decade' brands in Cycling.

Decade that do DMR/Kinesis/TRP etc aren't the same as the ones that CRC own.

TBF isn't a bit naive to get into bed with CRC by buying into one of their brands and not expect to get *ed up the ?

You're thinking of Upgrade, not Decade.

This happens with various Distributors that 'dump' stock online retailers, resulting in alot of IBD's not wanting to stock them as they know in a few months they'll be being sold at cost or less. 😐

No I think he means decade the bike company that make the virsa and a few others, they're handled (or posisbly owned) by the same people who import kinesis, upgrade. DMR and upgrade are part of the same company.

There's also a decade distribution that's owned by CRC.
