I purchased an Async A1 - Pro for $3,313.58 on June 20, 2023. Since then the bike has become unusable due to an unknown issue since August 06th, 2024. I emailed their customer service for troubleshooting advice. They requested videos and pictures of the bike to diagnose the bike which I sent multiple times and, since then, they have completely disregarded me. They don't answer emails at all and the phone number listed for their webpage doesn't reach a line.Initial Complaint

I bought a bike from them around a year ago. After half a year, I got a few questions that I wanted to ask them so I contacted them by email. At first they answered a few of my questions but after I asked more, such as what to do when I couldn't remove the chain to remove to rear tire (as the screws were stripped and rusted and I couldn't access the inside of the bike), they decided to ghost me. After getting constant reassurance that they would get back to me within 24 hours (they did not), I finally decided to cut the chain just to fix my tire. I tired reaching out again to them to try to get my warranty on the frame but again, I still got no response. After searching the internet, I found a reddit article that details how this was a common practice that Async does, any customers they don't like, they would just ghost.Initial Complaint
