Also, I noticed the delivery address I have indicated when I backed them has been finally updated to my current address.
well since the 3rd quarter starts today, and they moved away from just saying ‘July’, this probably means they aim for September now.
It’s fascinating to me how they pushed their timeline all the time the past two years (which I guess is normal) but then only push it by a little bit.
It’s like holding a carrot in front of a horse. If you keep dangling it in front of their face, they will keep moving, but if you put the carrot to far away, they’ll loose interest.
And it appears to be working. They got continues attention throughout the 2 years. And apparently there are still people waiting for the actual release or even putting in pre-orders instead of loosing interest and looking elsewhere.

Another KS comment, a reply to an inquiry from a KS backer:
'"Hello,
We will start deliveries of roads in the second week of July. Upon shipment you’ll receive a track and trace code through email.
Next week we’ll provide an in-depth insight into our production progress.
As for MTB’s, we’re finalizing the pre-production stage and expect to deliver in July."
On the followup, I asked if I could expect the duals to be shipped in July and the response was:
“Singles and duals will be shipped altogether.”
Summarizing, update just next week, and shipping of road sets only on the week after that."

My daughter has special needs. We found out at 2 years old when she lost the ability to walk, use her hands, or talk. She literally developed these symptoms.
Be grateful your kids are healthy, and perhaps consider how some people might feel when comparing special needs to a crappy power meter. );

Nothing personal too, would have called out anyone on this. Looking through these posts to try figure out what’s happening with these pedals. All the best.

The email quotes are completely valid. Credibility is the word you are looking for when it comes to IQ2 content in that correspondence
love your humor
Well I’ve cancelled my order and got a refund. I’m all up for supporting a new project and those involved but I’m not a charity. I feel Iq2 have a duty to keep backers and those purchasing honestly updated and they are not doing so. They may be engineers but if this is a serious business then they need investment in media and consumer care. They could so easily provide a few images, the double sided pedals, boxes ready to go, the production line or process, but nope nothing other than a time line that constantly gets put back. In the words of dragons den “I’m out”

I have been a backed since 2018 however, the long wait feels a bit frustrating so I tried to do the same without success. Their response was…
You cannot cancel your pledge as the money funded by our backers has been used as an investment into the production of the power meters.
Anyway, I do have a set of Favero Assioma Duo power meters which are awesome so not a big deal. However, I am a bit worried the current lack of communication could be an indicator of how their customer support may handle things in the future.
It is a touch concerning that they’ve gone so quiet. I’ve seen other projects fail at this point.
I agree and if they had any good business sense they would be sending out some clear messages as I do feel patience and confidence is starting to run out. This isnt the way to operate if they plan on running this business in the future, it needs foundations and the backers support. I certainly would not be buying from them at this time. And I’m sure others will read the Internet and see concerns
I check back here occasionally just to see the latest round of excuses/delays. Never disappoints.

Email today explaining the manufacturing process 
All backers to receive in Q3.
I really wish I believed them after another summer of switching my Garmins between bikes!
So funny to read the current post blaming CV19… and the one before that…
The one in mid May touches on production plans and is so rosey in color it’s hard to imagine they can’t see the forest for the trees at that time. So blind to reality that was well established at that time, they were either lying or ignorantly blissful… neither of which is good.
More of the same progress (lack there of) from that group. They really do a poor job of recognizing reality and sharing it in an honest fashion.

Quite honestly, if these folks were here in the USA, I would apply for a position to help them with their communication and production. Since I do production management, this stuff should be a no-brainer. (try production runs of something that is not fully designed yet!)

IIRC, their claim originally was that they were experienced production engineers, not necessarily design engineers and the whole value proposition was based on they could streamline the process better than anyone before to save costs. Lol.
I don’t know if the marketing person is the worst one I’ve ever seen, or they are arrogant, or ignorant, stupid, or scared or some combination of any or all of the above.

Potential issue incoming with the UK to Netherlands stage… I hope they’ve got enough manufactured before the 31st December!

The iqsquare.com is not available. 
Most likely just a temporary issue due to some updates.
