I would like more information about risk and reward for investing. Is there somewhere I can find out more about this ?

James, we had a quick chat as a team and realized we may have missed the crux of your question. I figure I can help fill in, in case you were hoping for a bit more about the specifics of Dust, in addition to Wefunder itself as a platform! Let me start by covering off the risks: Overall, the primary operating risk for a business like Dust is the working capital component. As a fairly complex hardware product, operating in a space that requires the production of inventory that can have longer l...

What is going to convince consumers to go with your brand instead of established competitors that already hold a significant market share (EG, Stark, Honda)?

Hi Walker, great question. The first thing that will help consumers to select us is simply the fact that we are offering a product experience that they are not. A product that blends powertrain performance with more accessible sizing, lighter weight and more agile feeling. Currently, we are the only brand positioning our bike in the category of high performance, yet approachable experience for the largest segment of riders. The second key component is brand and storytelling. Developing a cred...

What is the price point you are targetting to compete with the significant amount of imports?

Can you share your thoughts on how often you will update us on how things are progressing with your goals and business plan? Secondly, do you intend to file the annual report with the SEC? Thanks for your feedback.

Hi Karolina, thank you for the question! Yes, we intend on filing the SEC annual report and posting on our website. Typically, we have provided updates to investors at least Quarterly, and intend to continue that practice. Overall, we take quite the transparent approach with sharing our journey, and the state of the business. We would do no less for backers on Wefunder!

Could you share more about how the funds will be used to scale the business? Eager to see where this journey takes you!

Hi Hamza, this phase of the business we are focusing on locking in all the details to go live with production and delivery next year. We will be hiring critical staff for engineering and manufacturing so that we we will complete design commercialization, and we will also be focusing on completing our first year's order book with marketing, dealer and event efforts. We expect significant growth in the value of the business with a proven design, stacked order book, supply plan, and key staff in...
