Re trek, i wonder who owns the tech for building those silly proprietary shocks of theirs?
Penske. Who I assume, will happily license their designs to all but a direct motorsports competitor such as Ohlins.
Wow! Did you get a dispatch notice?I ordered my transfer post yesterday 2:30 pm (ish). It was delivered by courier this morning just after 9am. I'm, only 30 mins from Mojo though.

So Fox and Mojo are both selling trousers now?
mo(j)le skin ones?
Hmm, a pic of a stack of Fox boxes has just appeared on TF Tuned instagram...
It was on the story thing at the top!
Oooh....the rumour deepens.
RE: Trek
Do these rumours that "Trek done it" any facts on offer, over and above the fact that Fox UK Tech share some workshop space with Trek?
HI,
I got no dispatch note. Just an email from Mojo yesterday saying thanks for your order etc.
It was DPD who delivered it though.
I was surprised by the fast delivery, its just luck I was in. I was expecting thur/Fri delivery if I'm honest.
Cheers
Got links for the TF tuned photos?
that would be quite handy, they could do my Lefty & Dyad at the same time!Hmm, a pic of a stack of Fox boxes has just appeared on TF Tuned instagram...

Just had a look out of curiosity and can't see anything 😕

No.

Not as far as I can see.
I can't see it either, but who could blame them for stocking up at those prices anyway?

Where?
TFT pics just show lots of boxes of the PUSH coil conversion

Now you come to mention it, the last order I placed with Mojo sat in "pending" for a couple of days after I ordered. I was a little grumpy as I needed the parts quite urgently, so I called them up to moan at them and the nice person said "Oh, they were shipped the same day" and, of course, they arrived 20 mins later with the postman. Doh!I got no dispatch note. Just an email from Mojo yesterday saying thanks for your order etc.

'live' story that doesn't appear in the main feed.
Oh, I have to love that bare faced cheek.
😆
It’s definitely on the TF Tuned Instagram page.
Screenshot above 🙂
Hmmm, suddenly this makes sense. TFT have an excellent reputation for both technical competence and customer service (I mean, they actually encourage people to call them and ask for help with stuff) so if they've poached Fox's UK business then this becomes a simple distro switch which many businesses do from time to time.
[i]Watches with interest[/i]
To be honest, that pic could mean anything really. I have recent excellent service from TF and my fork is due a service. Was going to actually use Mojo too, still might be able to, but I suppose we'll see.
Could be a cheeky bit of trolling of course.
As above, seems a bit daft that a company would have absolute reliance on the contract with only one other company, a contract that can seemingly have the arrangement torn up virtually overnight, with zero contingency
Things change in business, its Fox's perogative to change arrangements. Seems an odd business model to leave youreslf completely at the whim of a third party.
It's quite normal for very large companies (Tesco and that sort of thing) to insist on a cap of their supplier's total business that is done with them - e.g. a maximum of 40% of an individual supplier's turnover is done with Tesco.Seems an odd business model to leave youreslf completely at the whim of a third party.
As far as I can tell, this allows the vastly larger customer to screw the supplier over, with the knowledge that should they withdraw all of their business, it won't be [i]entirely[/i] their fault when the supplier goes bust.
We've got a 13 year old set of Hope minis that still work great, having only ever been bled. They must have got 10s of thousands of miles on them by now.
Going off on a tangent, but they're the reason that I stopped buying Hope brakes' awful, hateful things.

I've negotiated contract renewals with significant notice where the current supplier couldn't grasp that their business was at risk until it was too late, on two occasions the company closed soon after as a result of losing the contract.
Even closer to me than Mojo...interesting.
??? ?( ^_^?)
You dont have to follow TF Tuned to see the live video, just go to the profile page and tap the profile picture and any videos will play.
Just did this, looks like a pile of boxes with Fox logos on the side...
Odd though as you thought they would have chucked out a press release really quickly to avoid the confusion with what has occurred and capatalise in the free press/buzz this has caused.
Loving some of the posts suggesting Trek are to blame for the end of the agreement between Fox and Mojo, this is greatly untrue and unfounded. If anyone has concrete evidence that Trek are to blame- please share....
As are the some of the suggestions Trek are next door to Madison and also we share technician workspace with Mojo...
All the best to the guys at Mojo who have done a great job with Fox over the years. I hope they are successful with whatever they try next.
Perhaps they're not allowed to officially release a statement yet. By showing a picture, they've actually said nothing and yet the internet* is frothing.
*well, this minuscule, sad corner of it anyway.

Oh come on, by denying it you're only going to legitimise the accusations. 😆

I've just checked my order status and they are still in "Order being processed", as is my last order from August, so I'll take it with a pinch of salt 😉Now you come to mention it, the last order I placed with Mojo sat in "pending" for a couple of days after I ordered. I was a little grumpy as I needed the parts quite urgently, so I called them up to moan at them and the nice person said "Oh, they were shipped the same day" and, of course, they arrived 20 mins later with the postman.

It was DPD who delivered it though.

Makes sense.
But not even a holding statement (or even acknowledgement) from Fox by now is just down right odd though and they still list mojo as uk distributor on their website.
What ever happened, the proverbial session in a brewery is coming to mind.
My seatpost has turned up in Glasgow. No emails sent beyond the initial Order Recieved one
X2 and Transfer seatpost with me already.
Hope my frame can swallow that much shaft, so to speak.
Assuming those prices are cost plus vat then it shows you how much margin the retailer has to play with.
My forks have just been delivered by DPD, that was quick, less than 24 hours.

FTFY
First of my orders has turned up in sunny Hove.
Good news all - did any of you order after 4pm?
Could be a cheeky bit of trolling of course.
Probably just letting people know they have a load of Fox kit in stock and soon to be at a low price. If TFTuned do have the Fox distro it's a poorly judged dig at the opposition IMO. Would put me in a bit of a quandary if they are playing games as I use them for my non Fox kit, I don't like using companies that goad the opposition at times like this.

Some further detail about future for Mojo.
I can understand Fox not wanting one of their distribution and warranty partners developing a competing product.
