Clinton H Posted April 2, 2014 Share I'm not sure If this will bring Cycle Science down but I for one will not even buy a Cokefrom people like this , regardless of the outcome . GoLefty!! and ChUkKy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TALUS Posted April 2, 2014 Share I know the blood is in the water and the crowd is baying for blood. I am thinking: will it be the best outcome if a shop closes down and people lose their jobs? Surely a outcome where this doesnt happen is best. How can that be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a outcome where this doesnt happen is best. How can that be done?They have earned enough of selling fake products, that they should be able to compensate their staff if they have half the decency!! Unfortunately I doubt they will. There will be collateral damage of their staff having to find new jobs but I cannot condone what they have done and then say to them its ok to keep trading!! If it is proven that the allegations are in fact correct, then they should be closed down and ostracized from the cycling community!! Let alone get criminal records for fraud. So there is no compromise!

Surely a outcome where this doesn't happen is best. How can that be done? Cycle Psychos are serial (not cereal) offenders. They've learnt how to make a fast buck taking shortcuts, the temptation will always be there to do it in future. FIA - fake imports anonymous "My name is Robbie, it has been 19 days since I imported a fake frame and fleeced a trusting customer".

BDF Posted April 2, 2014 Share Perhaps they should add an appropriate tag-line to their branding. Something like: "Cycle Science: We flog fake fietse" or something that at least advised the public that they are just like the street vendors, except indoors and they take credit cards!

BLACKvoodoo Posted April 2, 2014 Share You guys fail to remember 'the Hub' isn't the be all and end all of cycling. They will still have customers ,they will still do business and they will still be around in a few years time. Regardless of a few rants and lipstick dropping on a forum of guys who think they are Nino Schurter but actually are Steve Urkel. Antoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted April 2, 2014 Share  I AM NOT SO SURE 35 000 VIEWS :eek: AND THATS JUST HERE Many are attentive as this affects all of us as consumers in the market.Cyclists are regular consumers - upgrades never ever end!Thus, we are a vulnerable group to exploitation. From a credibility point of view, If Cycle Science is really pushing fakes, it has implications for other shops as well.  Very valuable thread.

jimmy hardtail Posted April 2, 2014 Share I think you are all missing the point. Its illegal to sell fake products, whether the buyer is aware of it or not. Selling a fake Pina is a crime and the shop should be dealt with accordingly. Unfortunately for the OP buying fakes is also a crime so he might not legally be entitled to his money back as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less customers than now, and the problems will increase3. Illegitimate business is not sustainable business4.
