The atrocious early 2010s gear.

Enjoyed that history. I had the same issue with customer support multiple times so...I'm not a customer anymore

A little history about this company. It was originally named Ed Tucker Distribution. They merged in the 80’s to make it Tucker Rocky. Tucker owns Protaper and Answer (in the 80’s, they also owned Race Ready) Their down hill spiral is a typical corporate America story. For many many years, MSR was marketed as off-road while Answer was MX. Tucker Rocky actually developed the original cross-bar less handlebars after originally bringing to market the then state of the art Answer Alumilites. Thus the creation of now ProTaper. The parent company which owned Tucker Rocky CEO was getting towards retirement age...

Beach races sometimes have a duty cycle like that, so will a deep, summer mudder. ICE bikes are Dyno tested at full load, full power, over their race rev range on automated dynos for hours as part of durability testing. EVs with small batteries and powerful motors need very good control strategies to keep temperature under control and that means power has to be severely limited.

You were on the shitter?

It will be interesting to see how the plastic tubes that save 2kg will resist pinch flats... Also interesting was that Bryan placed his deposit 7hrs before the press release....I would like to know how he got the heads up, he must know a few people, good for him.

How can you guys confidentiality say that about a bike no one can talk about. If I had customers like you guys I would be a millionaire. Sorry sir, you will have to wait 2 years for you're home to be built. Don't worry, send me a deposit and it's the greatest home in the universe. RaceFace is correct about turtlenecks.

I've always had the theory that their plan all along was to get acquired (sell the technology) before they ever had to sell a bike. And that is why they had such a premature announcement when they weren’t even close to ready to produce a bike, and why they went all in on $100 deposits-and not $1000 deposits- (as a proof of concept and to gauge interest level), and why they keep kicking the can down the road for delivery dates, and seem so opaque in all their releases, pictures, etc. etc. (production lines with no tools, empty shelves etc)...

Aj Cat made a video at Club MX riding his Alta on the MX tracks. I think it went 6 laps.

Whoa slow down there dude. You’re putting stuff on me I didn’t say. All I said was it’s stupid hot in Houston in the summer fact. That’s in response to guys talking about it will run cool no Mayer what. I never said anything about riding it at pro level speeds for 35 minutes. No me. I’m lucky to do 5 laps in that kind of heat. I ride 2 or maybe 3 times and go home. That’s the problem with these Biblical long threads as you said. I didn’t trash anyone or anything. Not the Stark nothing. I’ve never...

How many employees does Stark have?I would assume need quite a bit on the factory floor assembling, finance, warranty, hr, etc. I assume all those individuals were on the recent tour that the Vital member attended? Once the first bike is delivered how fast will the subsequent units be delivered, that was not answered in the video. Are their models in a warehouse ready to ship, or will each unit be built and shipped 1 by 1? Was the goal to ever be a manufacturer? Or was the goal to develop the prototype and then be purchased by a KTM/Japanese...

Dude I've got so much heat for picking that bike 😂 It was super fun to ride and definitely stood from everything I rode all year. But you're right, until they're on track it's basically the same case as the Cannondale.

At this point just deliver the thing already. I’m still baffled why there aren’t pics of at least 20 of them lined up. We do now have a few artistic videos of various parts being installed on their Facebook site. Otherwise it’s STILL the 3 or 4 pics of the same 3 or 4 bikes being built from a year ago. When they arrive we can see what it is. I didn’t bother watching the video of when he says that will be since it’s already way beyond what he said delivery date would be just a short time ago...
