I sent something in saying it was problematic.
I’ll talk to my contact there.
Does going to law school with the goal of becoming a public defender count?
So what happened to the Vista Outdoors fallout? Has a new company bought Giro yet?
Seriously I want a new helmet and I’m thinking maybe Kask? Can someone tell me things bad about kask?
They’re expensive.
Other than that they are amazing.
my mojito is getting on in age and i was deliberating what to replace it with but they’re pretty decent and i’d buy another. leather chinstrap probably isn’t vegan friendly
Nothing, as far as I know.
I’ve stacked my Kask K50 more than 3 times, I guess I should probably replace it but… meh
i was looking at POC octals but they’re like 0.3 bongs and i think i’d look too much like a road jock. i got an abnormally large head and kask fits better than the giro i had previously
I loved my atmos and aeon but I don’t want to NRA so ??? Kask?
“aims to exit…” but hasn’t yet
At one point product listings for Kask helmets said that some models used “eco-leather”, whch sounded as if it might not be animal derived. It piqued my interest, but I made the recent and bad choice of a Catlike helmet, so I’m not really paying close attention to what’s on the market right now.
I just got a lazer z1. It is very breathy.
Last I talked to a giro rep they are leaving vista ASAP. REI dumping them is killing them. But since it’s a sale of a brand valued over 100 million I’d imagine it will take 12-16 months to sell.
And the best we can hope for from Marin Bikes is that they change the name of the bike next year. Admitting they messed up will cost them money I bet they just don’t have.
I’d call you a hero, but it’s more important for you to define yourself.
re: Marin, they could change the name on their marketing assets and print stickers that cover the existing branding and say “end the prison industrial complex” if they were so inclined
Doubtful, normies like the idea of ‘locking up the bad folk’
I’d just go with dumb asshole who was sick of bike shops and couldn’t think of anything else to do
Sounds familiar.
Theres such a broad range of responses. Seems weird to swing back and forth between I dont care whatever and well what are you doing? Most times there isnt much to do about something or there is but its doubtful small things will change. But I think it does harm to express apathy.
