Just noticed that CRC have removed 'Commencal' from the manufacturers drop down list search option??

wtf is actually happening with Decade / UK sales?  It's now some time since the supposedly 'official' new UK distributor was launched/set up yet it seems like some secret club to actually get a UK commie the the moment?

[jimbo]

no idea, but the decade-europe website seems to have fallen to pieces too.. ?

[jimbo]

But you can download the commie probook from there;

No gossip from Eurobike...

Commencal is on the drop down menu on CRC!

Decade website is working just fine and seems to have been updated!

Decade is working on building a Commencal dealer base!

Stock is coming in over the next few months!

"100MPH Plus" are you a shop. If you ring Decade they will give you any information you might need.

[100mphplus]

Well it wasn't on the CRC site when I looked yesterday, hence why I posted the link!

.....and in answer to your question, no I'm not a shop but I'm sponsored by the Canadian Commencal importers and got my Supreme V3 in May and I'm getting fed up of UK riders asking me when they're available over here!

Craig, I'm guessing you work for, or are connected to Decade because of your abrupt remarks?  There appears to be a lot of riders wanting a V3 but don't know where to get one.

Don't shoot the messenger!

[KRON]

Lovely way to talk to customers if he is.

agreed, what an odd first post to make here after registering 3 months ago!

[craig1980]

Guys,

I am connected to Decade.

These remarks were not meant to be abrupt, this is why I avoid posting on forums and emailing people, it can be construed in a way that is different to how it was written.

Just thought I would give you some facts rather than speculation.

As you are all aware Decade is the new Commencal distributor for the 2012 range onwards and I'm very pleased about this. Having ridden and owned Commencals over the past few years I am excited about the year ahead.

As we are stocking Commencal for 2012 we will have stock at the same time as other bike distributors. Around October/November. We are building a dealer base at the moment and if you want a 2012 Commencal go to your local shop and tell them to get in touch. Dealers can order from Decade.

Advertising will also start when we have stock arriving. No need to advertise when there is nothing available to customers, this just leads to frustration.

Hopefully information will start to become available as time goes on.

Happy Riding!

Thanks for the update craig, feel free to PM me if there is anything we can do on the site to help, promote etc

[craig1980]

Thanks Iain. I will be in touch when I have any interesting news. Cheers.

Beat me to it!!

Interesting that one of the comments in that link claims to be from someone in Decade and quotes the frame + shock price at £1650, whereas here taken from the Commie website, the frame & shock price was more like £1850

[craig1980]

Don't make the same mistake as everyone and convert the Euro price into £'s. The frame is £1650 with Fox shock. The guy who commented on the price on Pinkbike is Decade's Southern rep. We are trying to get the word out about pricing as everyone has assumed that converting euro's to £'s will give you the price.

Meta AM frame with shock £1650.00rrp

Meta AM frame with no shock £1150.00rrp

Meta AM 1 £3800.00rrp

Meta AM 2 £2850.00rrp

Meta AM 3 £2500.00rrp

Meta 55 £1700.00rrp

Meta SX £3500.00rrp

DH V3 frame only £1700.00rrp

DH V3 frame with shock £2300.00rrp

DH V3 Bike £3400.00rrp

DH V3 Atherton £6000.00rrp

I hope this will go some way to dispelling the made up prices rumour
