tribet Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 A real shame for the employees but folding and starting up again would be pointless long term they'd only end up millions of pounds in debt again. I can't see local or state government bailing them out with the state of the Spanish economy either and no serious investor with half a brain would be interested in a company that knocks out poor quality products with no profit.

The product is really rather good, hence its popularity. profitability? If they cant make a profit selling the most popular bikes then can make?

If they cant make a profit selling the most popular bikes then can make? Depends what you compare it to,I have come back to trials from road racing and the quality of a Gas Gas is frankly **** compared to anything used in RR even a proddy bike.If you can't see how badly they are made take a look at any Honda or even a Suzuki and see how it's done properly. My enduro friends say those bikes are even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfc Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Go back to RR then and don't lower you high standards! Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tribet Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) I haven't lowered my standards I bought a Honda not some POS Italian rubbish like you did. Seems all forums are the same you can't make a point without some tool losing his rag. If you think GG bikes are good quality you clearly know nothing about quality.

jfc Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) Having read all your posts on this site you seem to be very negative about everything you post about with the exception of Honda. Thank you for your compliments in your last post, nice. Edited April 26, 2015 by jfc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think GG bikes are good quality you clearly know nothing about quality. you are the only tool here at the moment. Offered a new Mont or a new Beta I'd pick the beta, at least I'd be able to make it grip on something other than tarmac 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what your road racing forums are like, but I know from several years running a car forum that fuses can be erm... somewhat short. These forums are not like that and looking at your post history you've come straight in shooting from the hip. You can't, therefore, blame others for reacting negatively to you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldilocks Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Quality is poor on trials bikes , the honda is better but by no means perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality is subjective, its a range between reliability and price. (and gg is spanish(just like montesa)) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazybond700 Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 (edited) Agree crazybond but would add performance to the equation Yess offcoarse! And performance is for a bit contradictory to reliability. But well its like I said different for every viewer.
