  • Thinking of buying a frame from these guys.
    Anyone got any experience - they look good and reply v quickly to requests fr info.

    Thanks,

    Bernie

  • Well the internet is probable your best answer right now . If its in stock you should be ok. They have moved from wrexham and gone to Ireland.

  • Thanks. I'll risk it!
    Ritchey Road Logic...yum!

  • You should read this first:

    You didn't search for shiny bikes, did you?

  • shit...

  • Looking back through my emails I also bought a pair of forks from them which was fine, so I've had a 50% success rate and only lost the return postage cost when it did go wrong (and it wasn't like I chased them).

    Can it easily be mixed up with another frame? If not I'd probably risk it for the amount you'd save.

    Just buy it on a credit card so if they do totally fuck it up you can just get the money back from your credit card company.

  • I have the ritchey logic and its the mutts nuts. I love it better than my previous cervelo r3.

  • Thanks guys - I'll let you know how it goes.
    ...or doesn't!

  • I think with Shiny, they seem to be excellent when everything goes well but completely fall apart when it comes to customer service if there's a problem.

    I tend to judge companies/retailers on how they act to sort out a problem so personally, I'd give them a miss (although a friend has just bought a Record groupset from them with no problems.)

  • BLACK-5 for discount this weekend !
