Mosko's gear is bomber, and I have had great luck with their products but your observations are pretty similar to what I experienced and heard from others also. I didn't have any issues with my BC35's on the two longer trips I used them on, but decided to sell them and put my money into a rackless system to reduce the weight on the back of the bike (the bags + mounts + racks on my AT are about 25lbs without anything in them - and mostly all aft of the rear axle).
Thats a bit of a bummer. When you make a great product I would hope you could also make a great culture of people to support that product. Its gotta be People Purpose Profits in that order, in my opinion at least. I was also interested in the rackless systems as well. Buit figured Id go with just the soft bags first. What kind of bike are you running?
Subscribed! Watching you pull in and seeing you reach for the ground made me curious as to your height and inseam. I'm looking to pick up an Expedition at the first of the year and can't decide if I should have the factory lowering kit installed. Unfortunately there aren't any in my area for me to go sit on.
My Mosko stuff has been amazing but, I had a similar experience at the BMW rally in Oregon. They seemed to me less than enthusiastic to be at the show or have to deal with my questions.

Thats too bad. Sounds like there may be some culture issues there.
