+1's for Velosolo quality service and the rather shite service from Total.
Most recently I had a piss poor service from BikeBitsUK (also trades as bikepeddler on eBay)
Only placed the order as I wanted quick delivery primarily (for a maiden ride of the new build) and site states "same day despatch" Pffh!!
Placed order on Monday.
Phoned Thursday to check if sent, as had NO contact/confirmation/etc.
A rather arrogant man answered the call
"what are you after?"
"info on my order!?"
"what..are ..you..after?"
"in-fo....on...my...or-duh..??" X3
Got my back right up before I mention Veloflex tyres and he rather cock-ily tells me "all veloflex orders have been sent out"....
Following week....
"where are my tyres?"
"I'll check when i get back to the office"
....received email later that evening...Your order will be sent out tomorrow recorded. WAC.
Lessons learnt?
Will never use BikebitsUk or bike peddler again for anything. period.
and never leave tyres as the last bit of the build.
Anyways, rant over!
Had lovely experiences with Will Hubjub, CRC and obviously here, during the same build.
