Mark W Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 You have no idea what your talking about. And they don't have an idea how to design a booster (Y) Seriously, don't make that booster. It won't work. Talk to either Heatsink Steve or someone like that who's actually researched it instead of going "Purdy lookin' booster". That booster design will NOT work, at all. Equally, selling pads for that much is a bit arse when you've done no R&D, and we have no idea about the quality of your products. I know you're going to reply with "are procucts are made 2 the highest standerd" or whatever, but we have no proof of this at all. I also know that Joe got a load of free backings too - would the same be true with you? Still not particularly overwhelmed by Interact, or really any clothing company on here. It's all largely the same stuff, but with a different URL pretty much. The whole 'sponsor my friends' and give t-shirts to well known riders thing's an OK idea I suppose, but it just seems a bit arse, really. Kudos for actually having the ambition to extend your range to more than just T-shirts you got printed for cheap in bulk, which it seems the rest of the companies are just doing.

mat hudson Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 (edited) You've gone about this completly the wrong way. You don't have a clue how to run a business, and frankly, its turning into some what of a big joke. You may sit round a table at school and go "omgod man, lets make millions by selling this shit hot idea that i've just drawn". Normally, this is where you all go, "ahahahahaha". Although for some reason, you all thought it would be a grand idea and went ahead with it anyway. Sorry, but i don't have great hopes for you. Maybe you'll prove me wrong, who knows. jeeeese si you dont half come out with some shit sometimes. this goes for everone else giving non constructive criticism. they're trying to run a business. trying to make it work, thy'll learn from mistakes. so far they've established they need to be more profesional about their site and the way they present themselves. just next time, instead of criticising try telling them how they could improve the site/ thier business plan. oh ye. if I were you guys, id redesign the booster and take another look at the bash.

Mark W Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 How can you justify blatantly lying about the booster though? Just seems a bit odd to state the final spec of an unfinished product? DescriptionInteract Break Booster! Click for full size! - For use with dedicated 4bolt Magura mounts. - CNC machined from 2024 T3 plate aluminum. (TBC) - Wide profile to protect crossover pipes on HS33 brakes. - 87-100mm spacing (centre-to-centre of bolt holes). - Stylish laser etched 'I' graphics. - Polished anodized/raw aluminum finish. - Weight (TBC) - Stock (coming soon) - Price (TBC) Same with the bashring? PictureDescriptionInteract Bash ring Click for full size! - Designed for use with front freewheel cranks or 18t fixed cog. - Ideal compromise between 'UCI' style bash ring and 'standard' bash rings. - 8mm thick contact surface. - 5mm supporting region. - CNC machined from billet aluminum. - Polished finish. - Weight to be confirmed. - Stock (coming soon) - Price (TBC) Is that basically just copied from other sites? Anyway, it just seems really, really, really shady to just blatantly lie about products. Seeing as you're in a reputation-building stage of your company, like all new companies, it seems really counter-productive to f**k yourself around like this (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siders77 Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 It sounds like it's copied from the Heatsink Bikes site. Can you explain how it's being cut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai the Socket Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 I mean, Interact 'Clothing' Bikeparts are nearly showing up Steve. Looks like he needs to do 'tons' more research doesn't it? (Y) (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulltrialser Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Lmfao that’s all I can say so basically there rim jam pads and the bash and booster you was bored so went on paint the t-shirts are all the same just different colours. Also the site looks poor and i dont think people will buy as there are lots of far better companys out there. End off (Y) Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh, But very true... First step to developing a site other than breaching copyright by using other peoples products and claiming theyre your own, Make the links at the top, you know.. the main ones actually readable (kind of important in this game) and perhaps make some designs which have at least some vague meaning or graphical content, I know everyones jumping on the lets make t-shirts bandwagon but unless you have something special you will fail like a million other people... Take a look at your competiton.. www.threadless.com www.fatoe.com not to mention the 100000000 trials clothing sites. final comment - back to the drawing board...

Impacted. Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 (edited) Spelling isn't sorted and the site looks nasty and that booster won't be any good. oh my god, just looked again and I think Rob P is right about that picture, that's so out of order.

Dan6061 Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Why do you want the topic closed? Probably to stop more bad feedback, and getting ripped (Y) It's not bad though, just needs tweaking abit alot (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siders77 Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 (edited) Probably, but if you're going to start a business you have to expect some bad feedback. Yeah, the ripping is a bit out of order but anyway. I say you need to- Get a decent site designed with no ads! Test your products loads before releasing them. Don't just give up because you got some bad feedback. Look into designing some more tees with a bit of variety. In all honesty I think you should just stick with the clothing bit and not worry about making parts until you're a little more well known to people. For all we know you could be ripping everyone the hell off when they buy from you. (Y) Do some research on products and stuff. Like Nick did with the sizes of tees (Here) so people know that you're actually looking into stuff like that. I'm only saying this because Interact Clothing or Interact Bikes (what ever it's called, see, I don't even know what it's called (Y) ) Get a spell checker on the new site! it looks really unprofessional when there's a shit loads of spelling mistakes on the site. When you start posting stuff like this; then you might just be taken seriously. Edited November 27, 2005 by Siders77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dai the Socket Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I don't think that people arent giving them a chance, merely judging them on what they've made the topic all about, their website and products. If they're giving a poor impression upon people, then they're just voicing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
