The rest of that batch arrived and is now (or will soon be) in the hands of happy customers.

The frame shop that we use has done very nice work for us in the past. The first generation P/Rs were flawless. This batch was different in that the shop outsourced the brazing and they did not check the contractor's work.

Demand for frames in Taiwan is steep at the moment, second only to the demand here. So they're trying to scale up production and it didn't work. Does it ever?

We try to scale up production and we just get told to wait our turn.

The good news is that people all over the globe are riding their bikes more.

That's all for me. Time to go krank out some widgets.
