They've just gone into administration today....

If you're a facebooker, look for Dave Stoppie, he's the PR man for MOB (Ministry of Bikes)

If you are talking about their textile stuff, the my mate had a couple of sets of Icon Raiden gear a couple of years back and it was very heavy, stiff and hot. They do a lot of snow mobile clothing for the U.S. Market and the Icon kit looked, felt and performed as if it was indeed made for very cold snowy conditions. I'm not saying it's bad, but it does have a rather unique vibe. At least the stuff I saw did.

...or their parent company BLD (Bikers Legal Defence Ltd) have.

MOB web site has been taken down. The doors are firmly closed - no Icon gear here.

Thanks guys...I'll keep looking. Just been wearing my old and leaky Frank Thomas for the last five years and want to find a more 'Enduro /Dakarish jacket in Blue. Every one I find is either out of stock or discontinued. .....and Pleiades when I checked out the M.O.B website recently it had that too good to be true vibe about it, so not surprised. Rotten for the staff though.
