Eine Nachricht aus dem WeightWeenies Forum macht die Runde. M2Racer, bekannt für Leichtbauteile am Limit, schliesst Ende Juni endgültig seine Pforten. Als Grund werden die extrem gestiegenen Rohstoffpreise für CFK und Aluminium angegeben.
In the past few weeks, M2RACER’s supply of high modulus prepreg carbon fiber has been shut off due to the heavy worldwide military and aerospace use. Carbon fiber is used in nearly 50% of the M2RACER product lineup. In addition, the price of titanium and exotic aluminum alloys that we use has nearly tripled in the past 18 months. Due to the unavailability of carbon fiber and excessive material cost increases, M2RACER can no longer be able to provide our valued customers with lightweight, high performance, and well priced cycling components.
M2RACER truly appreciates the enthusiastic support we have received from our distributors, dealers, and customers.
M2RACER will close its doors permanently at the end of June 2006. Until then, we will continue to service our customers with our very limited inventory. Thank you all for your patronage and the privilege of having worked with you.
