Since it's now common knowledge, going down this path is a personal decision. They have some super sexy, lightweight wheels. They will probably continue quoting 6-8 weeks. If I was to order, I'd bank on 12-16 which is hard to swallow. Forgeline offers such great service. As much as I like the Fikse, after the sale support can be just as important. I KNOW Forgeline is there for me.
They do have a new owner and a reduction in pricing. Quantity and lower pricing may be a bad business decision. I hate to say it but quality may be the next hit. I've seen it first hand in this industry. They lower margins, need higher production, piss off clients, over work employees, and you can guess what comes next. I'd raise my prices until I can meet demand. If thing get slow, run a sale.
