  1. not sure, never had an issue like this before - we sold tyres to dealers, and direct from our website - so we are busy trying to understand who bought from where and how etc. we received a large batch in November 2018 ... and still have stock on hand. So now we are checking with Vee Rubber on how to handle any current or future cases. there are customers who have not had issues - me included.
  2. please confirm your Order # and we can get your contact details. thanks.
  3. please confirm your Order # - that way we can get your contact details and will re-imburse you for the 2 purchased. don't want unhappy customers.
  4. 4 bars sounds extremely high - but regardless - we don't want to see these issues. Farr will reimburse you for both tyres - don't expect you to ride the front tyre if you are uncomfortable to do so. Have just re-sent the mail to Vee Rubber for them to urgently reply on Monday. will chase them up on Monday morning too - they don't work weekends.
  5. tks Wayne - mine are around 18 months old ( granted I don't do high mileage ) and have not had any bulges or issues. I am however running the pressure lower than most would on the road.
  6. sorry about this. not good and definately not something we like seeing! have been moving house the last few days so have not been behind the computer much. these are 72tpi ( an average thread count ) which should be plenty durable. The issue in the above photos is a concern and we have reached out to Vee Rubber ( our manufacturer in Thailand ) to urgently comment further about this. we have sold +100 of these, seen 3 like this. So whilst not a high ratio , it is still a concern for us. We will refund you for these of course, and anyone else who experiences similar issues. hope to have a response during Monday morning ( they are 6 hours ahead of SA ) .
  7. Sorry - have been moving house and not behind the computer much the past 2 days. Firstly, apologies for this quality issue - that tyre is not up to standard and we need to take it up with our manufacturer - Vee Rubber in Thailand. I have escalated this with them and am awaiting response - we still have alot of these tyres in stock. Having seen this issue I checked our sales and out of just over 100 units being sold we have had 3 issues like this. Let me get back to you on Monday once they have had a chance to respond to my e-mail. We will of course refund you for these and sort out anyone who has similar issues. Working with multiple vendors and suppliers means we sometimes have to wait for them to clarify issues like this. Personally I have had a set for over 18 months and have not had similar issue/s. Wishing you a great weekend - will report back on Monday once the factory has responded.
  8. ok, so these are a few months out ... but we are VERY EXCITED!!! new WIDE-R Alloy Gravel Handlebar.
  9. check out the link to their website here, more rad pics
  10. possibly one of the nicest Gravel builds EVER! ( not just because he is running our Aero Bolt-On ) this is Stephen from Rodeo Lab's personal bike for the upcoming Atlas Mountain Race! incredible attention to detail and color matching!!!! see more pics in HD and all their splendor here
  11. correcto --- some more great coverage of our #1 selling item - the Aero Bolt-On.
  12. this should get tongues wagging --- GravelCyclist.com poking fun at the UCI and USA CYCLING .... who seem to want in on the Gravel Action! watch the video here #nailedit
  13. sorry, only TAPERED Steerer versions available and no plans for CARBON. we are however working on some CROMO FORKS - but that will only be later this year .... for now it is just TAPERED with 100 x15mm or with QR lowers. 2 options.
  14. you gonna love some of our new projects .... #oldschoolrules
  15. sorry - yes, we are SOLD OUT ... BUT these items are now available from your local bike shop - they can order from Two Wheels Trading - who has been appointed as the local SA distributor - they have stock of various items - you can see the range they stock here
  16. thanks, we don't have alot of these forks but should still have stock in a month's time. surprisingly we are getting requests for Non-Taper versions ..
  17. the days of protecting IP and designs are all but gone ... rather get in first and create the market/demand. we would rather be developing / riding / playing with bikes than fighting legal battles in the courts and wasting resources. there is enough room for everyone!
  18. thanks, admire what the guys from RedShift are doing, nothing wrong with making the circle bigger ... we have loads of new stuff coming ... more the merrier!
  19. we are talking 650, 700, 750mm WIDE! more details and official press release soon.
  20. excited. our ALLOY gravel bars are going W I D E .....
  21. #oldschool is cool! we're working with a very traditional steel frame fabricator - no need for fancy 3D CAD when it's more about the details, geo, artisan vibe! should see first samples end Feb/early March. if you hating the old school AutoCad vibes you gonna lose your mind when you see our "new/old" bars being developed by NITTO ... throwing it right back to when factories took real pride in their craft and made things that were both functional and aesthetically an 11 out 10.
  22. we're developing a Cromo 29er Hardtail for the Bikepacking / Touring rider -- head angle will vary by size but is 69 to 69.5 degrees. reach is 437mm on a Medium ( 17" seattube ) frame. this is a 2021 model for us but one we are very excited about ... there will also be something for the NEW SCHOOL GRAVEL crowd ...
  23. #makehardtailsgreatagain
  24. watching thread closely ... #steelisreal #wemighthavesomethingsoon
