Why this matters
This is about what happens next, for everyone still riding.
Holding Cowboy to account
When a bike fails, a repair stalls, support goes quiet or a recall goes unactioned, it shouldn’t be left to quietly fade. A public record keeps the questions, and the company’s answers, out in the open.
A matter of public safety
A bike that fails in traffic is a safety issue, not a private complaint. Documenting failures keeps the risk visible to other riders.
Giving owners a voice
One owner is easy to wave away. A shared, factual record gives every affected rider somewhere to be heard and taken seriously.
Bringing riders together
Connecting people facing the same fault, so no one is left working out what to do on their own.
Independent, and upfront about it.
An owner-led record, run by an affected Cowboy rider. Not the company, not a regulator, and not anyone speaking for them.
That independence is the point: reports are riders’ own accounts, published with any supporting evidence kept on file, and corrections are always welcome. How this works →
