kinda annoyed. I was billed last week and they just ordered them today.

meh

hmmm.  when i talked to devon last week he said we SHOULD be getting them by the end of this week (delivered).  We'll see i guess

DucSteve

maybe the people who paid right away had their order already placed and should be getting them soon.  while the slowpokes who didnt pay till yesterday get them later.  guess time will tell

Hey guys!  This is Devin from Cyclesector.  I know there is a bit of confusion regarding your rearsets so I decided to register on here to make it easier to communicate with you guys.  First off, I want to thank you all for your patience and support regarding this GB.  I want to make it clear what is going on at this point in time:  Right now, most of our funds (this includes almost all of the Sato money) have been frozen due to a large transaction from one of our customers in Brazil.  There was nothing illegal or even irregular about the transaction except for the large amount billed, so please don't be worried.  We have been in constant contact with our bank and are doing our best to figure out a way to release the funds so we can make the Sato order ASAP.  We expect the funds to be released Friday, but will try to buy the rearsets in increments and send what we can get now to those who ordered first. 

Once again, thanks for your patience.  We are a very small business (2 people) and greatly appreciate your support.  Know that we are doing everything in our ability to make this as painless to you, the customer, as possible.

Thanks!
Dev

P.S. These rearsets are awesome! They will be worth the wait!

Ha! it wasn't the Aussies after all - it was the bloody Brazilians - but we can''t hate them....they did come up with that 'wax'!  ;D

Yo Devin,
You still taking orders at the GB price? Wouldn't mind sending my dough once all this gets sorted out.

Devin,

Not to be a dick, this is the last thing I want to come off as. But the reason I ordered rearsets is cause I dropped my bike and my stockers while usable are pretty well tweaked and it makes riding....interesting.
Your price point was amazing and that is why I went with you guys as opposed to a normal board sponsor to buy them or rizoma's. Now with all the delays its really frustrating cause I'm in a position where I want to really ride my bike, and would've paid more had I known all this was going to happen.

But enough of my pregnant doging, I thank you being open and honest about this situation. Will there be any way to speed up shipping when you start to receive the rearsets from sato?

But again thank you very much.

You sure it wasn't Nigeria?  [laugh]
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.

Dammit Tom! You beat me to it.  But seriously i am the former President of Nigeria and i need your help spending my money.

Dev,

Thanks for the heads up.  I appreciate what you guys are trying to do and hope to continue to support you.  I am in the same boat as Jesse (well as of this past weekend), but i have a spare stock rearset i can throw on in the meantime. 

Thanks again

Jesse,
Dont you love that custom toe out peg position and toe in lever position!??!  I know I do!!

jesse370

fromario, yeah I REALLY love it when I'm full lean in a left hand bend and my right foot slides right off the peg....

yeah, didn't need that foot there  ;D

I bent the crap out of my brake lever and it at least works now but the angle you gotta put your foot in, well blows.

I hear it's a complete tank/exhaust/rear set/clip on kit, right?  Is there a package discount?

I should put a GB together  ;D

For those wondering if they can still get in on this: Group buy is closed.  We need to focus on getting these to those who already paid before we divert our attention anywhere else.

Thanks for showing interest though!
