I don't even have the R10k to build up a chinarello! Kill me now!

Can someone please give me an update of whats happening

 

Work got in the way today

I got to where some dodgy Barry Roux Wannabe sent a respone saying that the OP only paid +-R30 000 and he knew it was a fake and asked for the frame to be sprayed

 

thanks brozefs

Not a lot and CS seem to be carrying on business as if nothing has happened.

 

Seems there is someone else who has also found out their frame is a fake (a Spez I think) and someone mentioned that it was talked about on 702.

Ask yourself how do shops get away with selling fake bikes and components in South Africa? I somehow don’t think I am alone in being scammed although I would like to post that R91,000 is the high water mark so far It is unlikely I would have ever have found out were it not for the LBS Turramurra Cyclery in Sydney. A shop the size of the coffee area at Cycle Lab. And yet within a minute of entering the shop they said my bike was fake. They took pictures and prepared a report very professional.

 

Now compare this to another Cycle Science victim (I know of three fake Pinarellos and one S-Works from this post) who took his fake Dogma to Cycle Lab to be set up. You know where they adjust the saddle height, reach, etc, etc. How come they (like the small LBS in Turramurra) didn’t tell him, ‘your bike is fake’? They happily set up his fake Dogma and told him how stunning it was!

 

Attached the letter I received from Turramurra Cyclery, pity they aren’t here.

 

Note to self, find new bike shop for service, mmm this might be tricky under the present circumstances perhaps wait a little bit first.
