Does anyone know who is supporting Sinister Bikes? Specifically the R9? I'm trying to find small parts support like the built in frame bumpers, decals, tech support, etc. When I go to the Sinister website, there is no mention of the R9 and I can't get a call or email back to save my life. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Found the small bits at the website - Thanks! I'm still wondering about bigger support issues regarding frame, swing arm. Apparently Frank the Welder is still around and supporting these bikes, but I've been unsuccessful tracking down contact info.

Go to the Sinister Bikes forum. Register and sign up to the forum. Then send a PM to FTW (Frank the welder) and he will respond. Him or BTF95 who is Bruce.

Or submit a thread in the "ask the Welder" category. They respond about every day.

Bruce is good about responding. I know 2 years ago SkiRack in Burlington VT had their line of R9's... (where i bought mine) They also had a demo to try out. If you go there, ask for Matt if he's still working there. A lot of the guys there where roadies and wheren't a big fan of DH'ers... Not saying they still are like that. It's been since last spring that I was in the shop... Good luck! The R9 ROCKS!

Ok, must be missing something. Went to sinisterbikes.com and attempted to register for the forum. It says that the answer to the random question; "Sinister riders ride what?" is wrong? I entered R9. Is it like a secret handshake or something? WTF!?
