[Closed] Why no Endura gear on sale through CRC now?

Might have been dropped by UK (mostly) online stores, but seems to have been picked up by at least one German online store (although bike24 does apparently have an actual store too). I don't recall them doing Endura before, but maybe they did.

As far as I can tell Endura has moved production offshore, managed to produce things which actually last more than one use, but lost the whole reason why people might have bought their stuff. After all if you're going to spend 80% of Euro manufactured brands on Asian manufactured stuff - doesn't it make sense to keep the money here?

Who knows how well CRC pay? They might demand a years credit on the stock.

Is that true? Last I saw word was they were expanding manufacturing in the UK. [list] http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-18873872 [/list]

Nothing on their website's news page about all this but one of the posts on Twitter suggests this is only a temporary move (sorry for not being able to link to new-fangled social media thing)

Endura?@endura

@MikeCowland Hi Mike, we'll be back on CRC soon. We chose not to deal through Wiggle a couple of years ago.

I think it's more to do with what [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/why-no-endura-gear-on-sale-through-crc-now#post-4417630 ]igrf talks about,[/url] selling internationally, than having a bricks/mortar store.

Edit: Of course I could be completely wrong...
