Well, Bannard Thailand told me Bannard had folded. Bannard Singapore had not heard from them. The Bannard Taiwan FB page had not been updated for months, and one forum member here said they had been bought out by another bike company.
The Achilles is new from what I understand, but it is not a far cry from the SR. Bannard also used to have a similar bike called the Poseidon.
Am I selling Bannards? No. Not yet. Would love to stock frames and do custom builds for people, though...
