    Love the business model of alienating STW and PinkBike. Two of the most vocal MTB forums populated by people who can actually afford their bikes. Being down with the kids and anti everything is great if

    1: You’re a teenager yourself.
    2: You don’t have a business to run.
    3: Apparently an emotionally stunted man child.

    One out of three isn’t bad I suppose. I hope someone from Sick sees this and offers to fight me. I’d be totally up for it, all proceeds to charity!

    Big Boy Pants anyone ?
    We all know pants are too small right ?
    Designed to look good on male models who only eat steroids and have shrunken genetals.
    The medical bods tell us to let the boys swing free to allow better temperature regulation, hence the Big Boy Pants .
    Airtex material for better ventilation in non support areas
    Lycra for a smooth soft stretchy fit elsewhere
    Wder , longer , lower , slacker than all other pants on the market
    Big Boy Pants are where its at. On board storage system , choice of 8 colours and 8 sizes
    If you are carrying a few extra pounds Big Boy Pants are made especailly for you.
    And this is your chance to get in ahead of the rush
    Pre Order now . Dragons Den will be all over my pants in the very near future.

    Pah, so the Ltd Co was struck off. Doesn’t look like it was being used anyway, zero filings

    There’s a couple of gnarcissists on PB right now. That’s two more new or used bikes than I’ve ever seen outside their insta. So somebody got their bikes at some point.

    I don’t think anyone is saying that nobody got frames, just a signficant amount having problems with supply. One of those PB ones is one that has already been mentioned previously in this thread (owned by a chap who only ever posted on here, in one thread, about that bike) and another one of the same model, of which there were only 10 made, so 20% of a models entire ‘production run’ for sale within 6 months of owners getting them. Interesting.

    It’s interesting when you google Blaq Mass, no actual product turns up…

    It officially launched a year ago when Jordan gave up his high-flying Fortune 500 job to spend more time with his one-year-old daughter and build up the business.

    Was he a cleaner there?

    Was he a cleaner there?

    All on da linkedin – https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanchaos/

    CV suggests an attention span and expertise of a nine year old boy.

    Closest I can get to a Fortune 500 job is some quality control at a GSK manufacturing plant. So as far as ‘high flying’ goes he should be free to add weapons-grade bullshitter to his CV. Of course that could’ve been the reporter’s choice of words but it strikes me Jordan would’ve been delighted with the choice of phrase….

    If these frames do materialise they ought to be good as he’s into quality control. He could always get himself over to Enve.

    This is his Freelance producer experience at Channel 4 reads like it’s a copy/paste from the “What you bring” part of a job ad. No details whatsoever on what he did or what he achieved. I call BS.

    Yeah, he should really get a restraining order to stop people looking at all the stuff he puts on the internet.

    Yeah it took me all of about four seconds to search well-known, publicly available records to put some substance to the Fortune 500 claim of someone who (and I have no interest in this other than the sheer ridiculousness of the whole saga) likes to make big, bold, brash claims in public. Obvs.
