MAYOR V5 Aluminum
Despite the many and lengthy delays hampering bike industry supply chains, we have managed to complete production on the new Mayor V5, only to now be plagued with shipping delays. Bikes are in transit from Taiwan, but due to the immense backlog, we are now anticipating a delivery date of February 28. While we had hoped to avoid any further delays, we have learned that these circumstances are simply beyond our control, and we thank you for your patience and understanding.
Currently, the entire manufacturing sector of the global cycling industry is operating at maximum capacity, in the effort to catch up on lost time from this year’s slowdowns and shutdowns. In some cases, lead times for components have tripled and even quadrupled. Unfortunately, RSD Bikes is also feeling the effects of these delays.
In spite of the grim outlook, we have managed to source from Shimano a number of 11-spd SLX drivetrains, to replace the Deore 6100 12-spd groups that were spec’d on build kits 2 and 2A. This solution has incurred costs from purchasing through Shimano North America, as opposed to sourcing directly from Taiwan. This will result in an increase of $55 USD/$70 CAD per bike. As stated in our recent update, each customer with a 1×12 complete build pre-order will be contacted directly in the next 3-4 days to discuss the various options available to them.
Delivery dates remain largely unpredictable and uncontrollable, however as of today, our latest ETA looks favourable for mid-December.
We have just received advance notice from Shimano that all 1×12 drivetrains that we have on order will be delayed for a time, and will ship to us over the period from late January to March 2021. We realize that this may cause quite an inconvenience for anyone that has pre-ordered a v5 Mayor fat bike, so we are temporarily suspending pre-orders for 1×12 builds until further notice.
Since we anticipate that many orders will be swapped out for 1×11 builds in order to ensure on-time complete bike deliveries, we are temporarily suspending pre-orders for 1×11 builds also, until further notice. We are taking these steps in an effort to be able to fulfill as many pre-orders as possible, by keeping options open for potential upgrade or downgrade.
If you have already placed your pre-order for a Mayor 1×12, we will be contacting you individually to offer the various alternative options available to you at this time. Should you wish to cancel your pre-order, please contact us by email at info@rsdbikes.com
While we regret having to share the news of this delay on the eve of fat bike season, we would like to thank you for your patience and understanding during these uniquely challenging times.
Sincerely,
RSD Bikes
This is not fake news: Fat bikes have evolved from 1-season freaks that were built for riders who couldn’t make it through snowy winters without a pedal. So we’ve changed with the times and updated our flagship Mayor to be a legit all-season bike. The best value in the fat bike category is now an excellent candidate for year-round trail campaigns.To make good on this claim, these small but significant changes were made to V.5 Mayor:
Same Slacker head angle – 67 degrees
Same Steeper seat tube angle – 74 degrees
Sliding drop-outs and new V5 chainstay lengths of 435mm-450mm, a brand new top tube, shorter head tubes as well as a new added size XXL
Internal dropper-post cable routing
The qualities that made your old Mayor great are still true:
Custom hydro-formed 6061 tubing and RSD carbon fork
Massive rear stays to guarantee lateral rigidity
197mm rear thru-axle and 150mm front spacing
Proven build with RaceFace cockpit and Turbine cranks with direct-mount 28t ring
Sun Ringlé Mulefüt V2 80mm wheels shod with Maxxis Minion 4.8” rubber, allowing up to 100mm rims and 5.05” tires
