2012 Cubes are on the way at last.

[G-Zero]

Took my Scott in to my LBS today to get a bit work done on it, to keep it going until my new Cube arrives, to be told that my new bike should be in the UK at the back end of next week, or the beginning of the following week

Nice bike, I daren't tell missus G yet, but I'd love one of those added to the fold late next year.

[Philk]

Yup and the money i saved I blew on upgrades......Im really loving the Acid.

Well one week passed and the other other began, still no sign of my bike.

Does anyone know if the rest of the UK has taken stock of any 2012 Cube Cyclocrossers yet ?

At least I'm not alone.

Can you let the rest of us know if either of yours arrive earlier ?

They must loose enough sales by releasing bikes so late, I got so fed up waiting I ended up getting a 2011 model - but if that had not been available my eyes where already going astray!

I'm in that exact position, but only 'cos my current bike is on its last legs and needs to come off the road for a bit of work, otherwise I would be happy to wait patiently.
There are a couple of alternatives in the shop and I'm sorely tempted.

I need to ask my LBS what sort of business he can do if his main brand are simply not available to sell. It appears that Cubes of all types are in short supply, and many lines had sold out by the middle of last summer. How can he continue to stay afloat if he can't sell one of his main brands for six months? He also does Merida and Genesis, so perhaps Cube are the main losers.

 

[Cubist]

He has one of last years Attempts in, in the right size, but it's a compact. I want a triple living in the Pennines, and as I'm ordering on the C2W scheme I don't want to pay the full £1000 for last year's model in a configuration I don't want.

Got home tonight to a message that my bike has arrived and will be built tomorrow. Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to get to collect until the weekend.
