Does anyone know if Classic Repro is still operating?

[Monolith]

I’ve ordered and communicated a few times with them before - but recently their social media seems to be gone quiet, and my inquiries for some parts were also unanswered, does anyone know if they are still in business?

Same problem here, I made a number of attempts to order or contact them, after successful deals in the past, but no response at all.
But just realized that since last week there is a new banner on their homepage

MOVE, NO ORDER BEFORE 11/09​

Not sure how to read it, hopefully not in the american way, that would mean we have to wait till 9th of November, quite a while

Send directly a message to MojoTi

Hi,
It's meanwhile after Nov. 9th, just still no update of their Homepage, no orders possible.
No feedback to my attempts contacting them.

Does anyone has a way to contact them or order goods?

I desperately need something to finalize a bike project

since quite a while,
I'm afraid, it looks to me that they are finally out of business.

If someone gets hold of someone (MojoTi?) from Classic-Repro, and if they have stuff left, I would definitely still want to purchase something!

Why not spend the money on legitimate original parts rather than fake ones?


Ali express gets a hard time but is no different apart from country of manufacture.

Call it re-pro all you want but using someone else’s branding and design without authority is simply selling fakes.

Because some things are practically impossible to find. For instance new Gripshift X-Ray grips - Classic Repro was the only source I knew for replacements. Sometimes legitimate original parts are unavailable.

you are right,
but the point is that Classic-repro or also imporve-part are not just producing fakes, but supplying pieces where the original manufacturer isn't existing any longer or is not at all interested to produce replacement parts for old Bikes (like nowadays organizations running brands Cannondale, Syncros, Yeti)

Think of Syncros Stem caps, simply much more Syncros stems of the 90ties are left than caps. Thanks god there are companies filling this gaps.

But that's the whole idea of the hobby. Rare parts are rare. If you could buy every part as a fake it would destroy the retrobike scene
