Hey guys, I am just getting this issue ready to take out to the paddock!
I think that there has been some good feedback from everyone & we will of course take that on board in the coming months as hopefully the business develops nicely.
With regards to the prices I mentioned, they were based on rough estimates from your LBS, and not from what you can gather on the internet after spending time looking for the best deal. As a small business I currently don't have huge bulk buying power but will of course try my best to give better value for money in the future.
To clarify Ian (hacked2) is actually one of my suppliers and not part of F0ffa directly. He has worked very hard to supply most of my bikes, and we have taken on board plenty of comments since I started a while back. These include now supplying powder-coated frames, as well as other improvements related to structural integrity.
Also I usually do point out to our customers that these are not brand new bikes, and have been tested at the best of our ability. They do come with a 12 months warranty which is not something many bike shops would do on vintage frames.
Anyway, thank you once again for those that have respected me coming on this forum and showing good will. I hope we can now all (including Ian and Adam) put this issue to bed, or out in the paddock and let's hope 2010 is a good year for everybody!
Dani
