Rumor 1 Joe Rocket went belly up and was sold to Sullivan Brothers in New England who has plans of being the sole distributor for the Joe Rocket name. Point is the remaining Joe Rocket product out there might be the last at the low prices we have seen over the past couple of years
Rumor 2 Hein Gericke Germany declared bankrupcy. Again the remaining Hein Gericke product in the USA will be the last. FWI (USA distributor for Hein Gericke Germany) will market First Gear only.
