Ok crew sneeky underhanded things have been afoot. As you know Russ and Thump are bringing the Vertmax bike over here to introduce some competition and as a wake up call to other dealers that THIS bike and spares kit was the standard and price we deserved.Well it seems to be working ... a few days ago Russ was contacted by dirtmax and threatened with aggressive legal action over the name vertmax which they thought was a bit close to dirtmax. With Dirtmax determined to spend whatever it took to stop Russ trading under vertmax he was faced with a choice ... spend thousands in a legal sh#tfight or change his name .Yesterday Dirtmax upped the anti and put the issue beyond doubt when they bought and trademarked the vertmax name as their own.Russ doesn't want to spend thousands in court as he'd rather put that money back into the scene or sponsorship not waste it in court ... obviously dirtmax don't.
See Dirtmax would rather spend thousands trying to destroy Russ because they know that
1 they don't want you bring you the value for money Russ is and
2 they just don't want the competition ... without it they can continue to rip us off simple as that.
they'd rather spend money eliminating the competition that way they can continue to do as they please,limit our choices and charge whatever they want.
But this isn't stopping or even slowing Russ it's no more than a pain in the arse ....
it just goes to proove what I have said above is true and has only made me more determined to support him ...and you should support him too ...
No one would argue ,Russ has a great bike at a fantastic price on the way and we'll just rebrand em when they land and it'll be happy days but Dirtmax have exposed their dirty underside to us and that won't go well for em .... dirtmax already had a reputation on here as a rude arrogant dealer before this .... now he'll also be known as the greedy dealer trying to take out the underdog ... way to go
.
I have already chucked Russ an idea for a name but can't post it because dirtmax will automatically buy the domain and trademark two minutes after I post it ...
why would they do that unless they were scared of the value Russ is bringing and their reluctance to bring a similar value to their customers.
Anyway if you think you've got a good idea for a name post it here .... and Russ can decide I guess.
Anyway that's the story so far .... I'll keep ya's in the loop
