The long wait

Arghgh…

I’ve been patiently waiting for my Kuota since April 1 when I put down a deposit (“b/c we are expecting a shipment next week”) - I only harrassing the shop once a week…when I dont hear anything…well…its almost three weeks later…and the shop doesnt know where it is…and apparently neither does the distributor…

I dont get it - its not like its a new model or anything (like the P3C which is ON TIME) - its a plain unpainted medium Kharma…

is it that hard to keep track of inventory and give firm delivery dates?..I mean if I was ever three weeks late with my design projects I’d be fired on the spot…

now I gotta decide what to do because I have a race on May 1 and I have no bike…plus they have to ship it to me…and I’ll need to put it together…

“sigh”…just needed to vent…

Tom has informed us that the bike industry is just this way and although no other industry could function that way the bike industry is fine to keep plodding along in a world of “it should ship next week”

Good Luck, I went through the same thing with a basic P2k last year and finally just found a shop that had one because I got tired of it.
