Hello hello our trailblazing Burners,
I won't beat about the bush on this one. We've had everything we need for final assembly for a while, we've been awaiting our die cast casings from Asia... And they have not been up to scratch!! Literally. We got to T6 on the tool for the casings and now we are still rejecting pieces off the final tool. Im afraid I'm not going to compromise on this and approve sub-standard product.
We have just reviewed delivery of the first batch of selected perfect casings and have made these up into perfect final Burners, see below! We are testing these and once approved the next drop of 500 casings will be released. Expected Friday. There will be a gap between these 500 and the remaining 2,500 as we will be quality assuring each of the 500 and making any necessary changes before green lighting the bigger batch.
Please await your confirmation email when your package is on its way. We use different couriers for different countries, but you will each receive an email. That's it folks! Be back soon and the end is in sight.
THANK YOU for your patience and support, it will be worth it. We are so excited.
With love and thanks,
Emily + Team Blaze
Oh and Ps. Half the Blaze team have just arrived at Eurobike. They will have the first few Burners made up and put through testing with them to show - so go say hi if you're there and check them out... They're looking puuuurdy! Eeek.
