Just wanted to give my two cents on everything. I ordered my bike December 15, 2021 two days after the initial trailer and so far I’ve had nothing but bad experiences with stark. I hate to be one of those people that relentlessly criticizes a developing company but at this point it’s just ridiculous. My bikes been delayed at least 3 or 4 times now with 5-7 months added each time. Stark continues to make bold and empty promises about delivering bikes and yet they fall short every time.
The funniest part about the entire thing is that they happen to get bikes to “influencers” or basically anybody with a following to get them to market the bike. Don’t listen to them regarding shipping restrictions or any of that. I’m from SoCal and every day I see more and more people who live here and have bikes (what a coincidence they have channels) even though they supposedly can’t get them through.
Now not only do these people get bikes before any of the early customers but now they are starting to deliver them to dealers too. I was told by stark a month ago that “any minute” a dealer would reach out to me to arrange delivery and payment but surprise surprise it’s pushed back again to April. Seems like they’ll just hand bikes over to dealers and whoever else is willing to pay the extra 1k just to squeeze out every dollar they can.
