He then shared the links all over social media and it got so much attention that the next day he said there were 4 telkom vans outside his house and the regional director was on a ladder checking out a pole. I will just leave the dig record of the domain he registered below...; <<>> DiG 9.3.4-P1 <<>> fuckyoutelkom.co.za;; global options: printcmd;; Got answer:;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 8437;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION:;fuckyoutelkom.co.za.

Eventually they settled by giving him his money back.... damn good idea,so many brilliant ideas on here . Something will have to give. Just like fees must fall,albeit it went to far. Those genuinely concerned got the desired effect through social media. As per the thread about classifieds...... This is what hub land is about . strength in numbers and being a community.

Pikey Posted April 18, 2016 Share So have got a contact email from the sales Director at omnico Vincent Stevens .Am going to send him an email with the link to this thread and give omnico the chance to put things right before reverting to social media and slander. If they do not reply or replace my fork then I say let the games begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted April 18, 2016 Share I recall my first ever rear shock - a float on a Raleigh RDS. It started making a noise like a loose headset over bumps. It must have gone back to Omnico 3 times or more. Eventually they believed me and replaced the shock but it was a massive mission to get them to that point. A 32 will never feel like a Pike - its comparable to a Fox 36. I have an a 150mm Talas 32 CTD. Its not great and certainly no match for my Pike, but it works reasonably well after some tuning. Sounds like yours is a dud - I'd push for a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
