Well it was going to be until I received a response from Scot at ibis

And I quote.......... Not sure of delivery time at the moment the factory is only making [b]3 a day [/b]
and we are selling 3 an hour and we have no idea where they are going to be placed 1st

Fan...****ing....tastic !!!!

5000 hours in front of the CAD making the frame look the nuts
then only being able to produce enough frames to supply 1 state in america

and then.......if there are any left they have a lucky dip for the rest of us !!!!

Not a happy bunny

Look on the bright side, you can buy a better, similar bike and still save enough money for a small car or whatever.

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

Yup Ferrari did a similar thing with the F50, except they only made 349. Imagine how many people would have them now if they made as many as Ford make escorts..

Not like this one , thats the problem

Waited a year for this frame to come out looks like I will be waiting another year

Shame really, would make a wicked mega avalanche bike

Nomad looks a bit like a dogs dinner to me

And it looks like it comes with a rockshox unless you want to upgrade to a half decent shock

For more money on top of the 2.5k retail price

Takes the Mickey really

I'd pick the Nomad-c and rock shox ain't so bad nowadays.
