Nick Garland Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 I do not ride mod, but I am curious if anyone knows why the 20" Gu has been discontinued, seems odd seeing as it is very popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR28 Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Just the mod, strangely!suprising you dont know Adam, its why I created the thread so you didnt get 100 emails askingWell, it looks like it's because there is a new design which they want to produce asap... but nothing more specific than that. Haha, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted July 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Be interesting to see what the new design is, maybe its so the stock, mod-stock and mod do not look sooooo similar. Be refreshing for a slight change. They probaboly found a nice weakness in the 20" design and are updating it so that not too many fail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King C Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 My guess is the removal of the bash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackF Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 well this was going to be my next frame but if they go and re-design it, most likely without a bash. czar *** now jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Have any of the new one's broken?I was trying to be inventive.The truth is that Deng probably can't stop spanking the monkey ever since he thought of that amazing idea... and discontinuing the current design / introducing the new design is the only thing that can save his balls from imploding.

The Duck Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 well this was going to be my next frame but if they go and re-design it, most likely without a bash. czar *** now jack.Not slating the czar at all (as its probably my next frame, will wait to see the new GU now though)...But bashez iz gay zzz!!They're nothing but trouble, bash ring does the job fine!I was trying to be inventive.The truth is that Deng probably can't stop spanking the monkey ever since he thought of that amazing idea... and discontinuing the current design / introducing the new design is the only thing that can save his balls from imploding.I agree.Seems very strange/stupid discontinuing possibly his most popular frame at the mo, just so he can do a replacement?! Couldn't he just give it a different name?? Call it HU Buffoon or something, instead of getting rid of one for a possibly less popular second model... Bit of a gamble?

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Or release another 20" under another name like 'tundra' or something.Both could be popular.I dont know whey he's restricted all makes but echo to 1 stock and 1 mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCottTrials Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Or release another 20" under another name like 'tundra' or something.Both could be popular.I dont know whey he's restricted all makes but echo to 1 stock and 1 mod Its because theres no need to have multipul frames under one name, if he makes a new frame he just starts a new company.
