So there have been rumors about this for a while but the weird thing is I swear Retrogression had a blurb on their page for the EAI Deluxe cog that said the rumors were unfounded and EAI wasn’t going anywhere. That text has been removed from the page now.
Anyways, this sucks to hear. Glad I’ve got my EAI bikes and a couple spare cogs but I’ll probably grab another spare Superstar to hold on to. I can already predict the Gold Medal cog in a few years becoming like the Kashimax tube protector – the next piece of fixie bling that commands an even higher price than it does now.

My Nitto EAI B259 steel risers with welded ends still a fav.

Just saw this on retrogressionās instagram. Tragic.
Not only is this a bummer, it means the chances of me finding my grail Bareknuckle frame just went even further down
Damnā¦.that sucks!
Glad I got my 17T when I did. Durable and buttery smooth cog for the money.
Breaks my heart. What a loss. Their catalogue was insane with so much quality stuff.
I am not from the US. Is this because of new Trump tarifs ?
Wow
Wanted my next bike to be a Godzilla š Gonna be a harder time finding one now for sure.
When I first started looking at fixed gears, the bareknuckle was just out of production.Ā
stay tuned for a warehouse sale maybe??? imagine all the rare shit they got behind doors
There goes my hope of ever seeing a BK or Godzilla reissue.
