Perhaps being owned by Thielert didn't exactly help their survival....

Their holding company Thielert went bust a while ago so something must have been brewing on Superior. They also got hit by some ADs didn't they?

I know for a fact they absorbed the cost of the SB569 crank swaps under their 5 year warranty which must have cost them massively. They stopped doing that warranty ASAP but probably too late.
