Interpretation

The way I read it is that the forks go to DT (and become DT in name from 200 but Pace keep on making frames and clothes...?

 

[Russell]

They all sell-out in the end.

Rubbish.

 

[orange71]

who's left then among 'british' manufacturers?

 

[burkeredh]

:cry: i am so shocked, cant belive it , i have loved these bikes and forks since 1988, wont be the same. :evil:

 

[Rich]

Yep,

Hold tight boys and girls...only the forks are moving to DT Swiss, not the frames and clothing..still, it is a sad day, but at least there will still be a Pace!!!

Oh dear

Frames and whatever else they do wont sustain them. They'll be disappearing shortly for sure.

I can't agree that they're selling out.
The guys behind the company have been at it for a hell of a long time and probably want to enjoy a well deserved 'working retirement'. It's easy to call someone a sell out when it's not your money/business/work, life balance in question.
