• I bought a set of wheels built by this seller mnfman67 on eBay (despite there being one negative feedback about another set of wheels). They buckled after the first ride and I had them trued at his expense (he refunded me the £20 it cost). I haven't been riding too much but after a while, I noticed they had gone out again, not badly but enough.
    I had them trued but, within two rides they went out AGAIN. The shop trued them and didn't charge as it was so soon after the initial work, but suggested the problem was the build of the wheels. They have since gone out a 4th time and I am buying new wheels. I messaged this guy but have not heard anything back and I can't change the feedback (hastily given after the wheels arrived).

    Buyer beware.

    I'm open to comments about how foolish it was to give feedback early blah blah or advice haha!

  • Have you gone through the eBay resolution centre thing? It should automatically kick in if you don't get a response from the seller and they tend to side with the buyer. It sounds like you were missold functioning wheels as the seller clearly doesn't know how to tension spokes properly.
