Yep.All is well again.They can be reached at Cannondale's old number :)
I'd rather a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

I can't speak for them but I did hear from them and things are moving along with the new bike.  I am only posting this so you can know it is still moving forward

It would be nice if they just added a blurb now and then to their FB page or to their web site to let everybody know that they are still alive. I know they are trying to attract a "new" breed of rider but, they should never forget that there are a lot of us older pilots out here yet waiting on them.
If you're afraid to break it, it's not worth having.

I emailed them yesterday, here's their reply:

Hello Mark,
                  Thanks for the e-mail, we are still very much here and we understand your frustration, A press release regarding the all new M.M.X. will be issued at the appropriate time,
 
Best Regards
Lesley White


I'm thinking that now is the appropriate time. Oh well...

I always seem to cause additional trouble when I say anything about the Maico's... but I just had to put my two cents in....

There is something going on... once they get it straightened out, everyone will get to see the new bikes.

Sorry to be so cryptic..

There you go John,being a sh!t disturber again ;)
It's not that they need to tell anyone anything,it's just that the way the sort of hype has been endlessly put out there with nothing to really show reminds some of us old fogies too much of Cannondale.I hope it works out for them-and us :)

It might be slight legal trouble due to the lack of ownership on the name Maico.
