Pete,

I wasn't inferring you were, it was a general observation if you read a lot of the posts on here you will understand; unless you believe in standing by something even though you know it is lacking, poor service or poor quality I do realise that if you are sponsored certain things are expected but there are limits and my integrity would always come first, if something is crap it's crap, I don't care if it's made by my best mate or my sponsor, it's still crap

I ordered mine right at the beginning as you did. In actual fact I ordered 2 from different suppliers just to be sure I got one!!! I got offered both of which one I turned down which allowed another lucky soul to get their hands on one...I even told another member that I'd just cancelled my order so he could get one

Does anybody know when the next batch is likely to be available for sale?

Normally order through the big shops, but have ordered one through a mate to kind of help out.

I've not said the product is crap though Pete, I've not bloody well seen one in the flesh yet!!!!!!!!!

I can't remember who suggested this to me in the first place, but maybe the reason you Phil and other's didnt get your kits is due to the last minute change to all metal grips? Maybe the shipment consisted of say 100 kits but only 50 upgrade packs. If that is the case, the retailers were expecting 50% more kits than they receive. Hard to blame anyone other than the manufacturer for that as the duisty's would of been unaware of this?

[Smoothound]

Dunno, depends where the kits were altered as well

also bear in mind I was offered 2 kits when they were released, 1 of which I turned down to accept the other so I'm not sure this could be the case!

I can 100% assure you guys that climbout have no kits sitting there "waiting for upgrade packs". Every kit that came in, went out the same day to their dealers - when i got there at 6pm Thursday evening to collect my kit, it was the only remaining one! Even Roger didnt have a kit for himself - he's still flying the original prototype machine!

When is the next batch due in for sale in the UK?

Mine was still there

Reckon they hid it from you just in case you got greedy Jamie

I'm now assured my N5 is going to be here today

Apologies to all for my ranting and moaning but it's mine, I've paid for it and I want it yesterday

[jamiem]

Glad you are hopefully sorted Phil, they must have have it hidden up from me, lucky they did or you wouldn't have one now

For anyone else after one, I've just seen seen Quick UK have it in stock still

Next batch is hopefully only a few weeks away.

[Smoothound]

Cheers Jamie.

Not here yet but I'm hopeful after a couple of conversations this morning. didn't think to ask about method of delivery, knowing some of the courier drivers locally it could be 10pm tonight!!

Fast Lad was still showing stock earlier as well

[Grant_beltcp]

Mine just turned up
I got it delivered to work so I can have a sneaky peak before going home to build it lol. I've noticed a few tell tale signs of grips being changed after initial packaging, but i really dont care where they were changed, or why they were changed. Atleast I have mine

[Smoothound]

Yeah mine arrived half an hour ago
