Hey just wandering if anyone knows what happened to Sputnic? i loved there parts and then sometime ago they just disappeared?
I've had the sputnic skyline V1 since it came out and I've always loved it but now i can't find anything about it, the site is down and i can't find any reason why

went out of business, I think they were part of a bigger company and they closed it

they seemed awfully close to shadow. and now there is subrose which has almost the same specs on all their parts. im wondering if subrosa replaced sputnic? but i think subrosa was out before sputnic died off so i have no idea really. i know they went out of business though
I'm on the vital legit list!

Subrosa's been out since late 2006 or 2007, I think. Not entirely sure. Sputnic's been out since like 2005. All 3 brands are part of Sparky's Distribution which is why they all seem related.

seems like everything went to shit after rickey bates died, shortly after that was when tony neyer left for verde and ben hucke for diamondback, and then the site went down
