I'm not hearing any timeline from my LBS on my April pre-order. Anyone looking at suitable alternatives? There aren't too many Avinox <50lb 150-160mm travel options in the US.
 
From Amflow chat today.

Hello, do you have any updates on the PX shipping to the United States?

Hi there, regarding the PX in US now, we sincerely sorry as the stock is still not replenished.
Will need to wait till Aug.

Hi there, base on the info we have now. We think yes the dealers in NA region will receive the bike in Aug, might be in late july.

The team did not give us any info regarding the ETA.

With USA and Canadian bike supplies, there is the issue of does Amflow have bikes to ship, but there is also the issue of who is distributing them once they arrive. The Canadian distributors of Amflow (DIAN Motors) broke up with the brand due to some dispute over their business terms (https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/amflow-canada.47363/), and there was some suggestion of difficulties with the USA distributor. Does anyone know the status of who is responsible for distributing Amflows in the USA and Canada now?
 
From a very reliable source. I hear mid-July. So, either next week or the week after. This is if you are in the first wave from early shop orders.

I want to believe this.

My LBS is also saying mid-July for my first-wave pre-order in April. However, that is what they were told by Amflow 1 month ago. And they haven't heard any substantial updates since. I'm just a consumer, but I might have thought shops would hear more if bikes really were that close to landing.

We get too much deeper into summer and the value of getting the bike at all really starts to drop for me.

5 friends a I, pay in full px carbons.
No answers from anyone. I it's very fucked up to see pivots with MS2 engines at the store. We are 🤏 close to cancel all orders and buy pivots even if they are more expensive. IF WE DON'T HAVE DATES OR COMMUNICATION OF AMFLOW BY THIS WEEK!
Beside the delay problem and that it's summer. It's very fucked up the lack of communication. I have been in China and it's awesome but this guy's don't help themself out to change the Chinese perception of people here in the US

🤷🤷🤷

agreed. People understand delays, but total lack of communication is not a good business strategy. at least not for the US market.
 
Kind of a little off topic considering I'm not one who believes Avinox = DJI, but theres all sorts of talk on the DJI subreddit about the trouble DJI is in here. People are saying that they tried to utilize a workaround to distribute DJI cameras in the US despite their ban, and now they're in legal trouble. I didn't dig into the topic but was thinking about Avinox failing to deliver motors and thought perhaps DJI isn't as capable of a company as I assumed they were.
 
My local dealer in Sydney had store stock of the PX when I went in on the weekend. He was trying to get me to buy one. Said I could walk out of the shop with it.

So I'm thinking the issue Amflow is having, is regional to the US, and perhaps an alternative should be looked at. Those being the Pivot, Forbidden, or Mondraker. Yes they are more expensive. But that is the landscape.

My dealer also had store stock of the Pivot Amp'd, Mondraker Zendit, and Velduro. I was surprised how many Avinox M2S motored EMTBs that were walk-in/walk-out ready.

For me is the lack of communication it's the problem. It's incredible how the went dark and everybody waiting and losing the summer.

Lack of communication normally just means they only have bad news. My dealer is supposed to get back to me about my Amflow PL Carbon Pro screen by today. The screen went black, but the bike works fine. But he needed the whole bike to organise the warranty.

It would be nice if they communicated when they said they would. If I don't hear from him. I know it's not good news, as the Amflow Australia website is showing no stock of the screen. Thankfully I have a spare M2S Enduro EMTB. So as long as the bike gets fixed in a reasonable time. I won't lose sleep.

I had a spare EMTB when I ordered my Amflow 18 months ago. It took 8 weeks longer to arrive than stated. It was frustrating. But having the spare, the wait was worth it. It is a great bike.

As riding each weekend with my friends is so important to me. I will always run a spare EMTB. If you do want to wait for the Amflow, maybe a cheap spare is an option. The new bikes can breakdown, and it may take some time to get spares for Amflow in the US.
