It's better when it's dirty
I do believe they went down with Nukeproof, Vitus, DHB and Brand - X along with the sale of Chain Reaction / Wiggle and their ultimate demise.
A random link to an article talking about it.
It is pretty sad as these were pretty well regarded brands that have just been destroyed and annoying as piss for me as I bought a ragley bike last year not knowing that they were shutting down so now I can't get things like a replacement derraileur hanger from them.
Thanks that explains a lot. Bummer that parts and warranties are no avail anymore.
It's sad but at the same time understandable. I stopped buying from CRC around 2021 because it took forever to ship to Spain. That includes a Big-Al Ragley frame for a bike I built in the day.
It is a shame, I've been buying from them since the early 00s on and off and have owned parts or whole bikes from all of the sub companies, all of which have been decent.
If I had known that I was getting such a good price on this bike because they are ceasing to exist I would have bought something else, hindsight is a bitch! I have found a third party part that says it is for my ragley for the hanger but it was only to have a spare and I can't 100% tell from the picture that is will definitely fit my bike and I'm always worried with weird specific parts like that!
Maybe my gen1 Blue Pig will be worth something.
