Had a read of this on Pinkbike today - really good article.
Inside Rose Bikes
Interesting how there business model works and the set up that they have - more 'LBS' than 'automated manufacturing plant'.

They're very slow though!!.. And communication isn't great... They put my 2015 Tusker I ordered back 2 months... After payment... Which I then cancelled, and the 2016 I've recently ordered has also been put back 2 weeks, which I've stated if they have to put back again... I'll be cancelling again. They're a handful to deal with!

Can't fault the product though Adam! and Dirk - that was more about the UK Rep (nob) getting too pally with the Rockshox lads.
Dealing with the actual Rose folk in Germany was a pleasure!

They're a handful to deal with! That doesn't read well. I've never had any great dealings with them TBF, and nor have many of my friends... Guess it's the joy of buying direct... Canyon were the same too.. And don't even get me on YT!.. The most unhelpful tosses in the world!..

I've had that experience with Canyon, not fun. People said..."well you paid a lot less for the bike, get it sorted locally". :/ Yes, all in all - I'd buy local next time. Thing is - there are bikes about now in this country which means you don't HAVE to buy from Germany anymore to get the best deals.
