Called the phone number on the website again got Beth.

Sent an email to the only other address I saw on the website, and got no reply. So functionally they appear to not be operational.

I doubt there's much of a market for $3500 frames made out of a fancy aluminum alloy, when you consider what $3500 buys in carbon, so I'm betting their efforts to sell or restructure have or will come up empty.
