So I bought this bike...Unhappiest day of my life.

[Pikey]

Here's your refund.. all you had to was ask...blah blah...everyone knows what a lekker oke I am...blah blah blah...**** you all.

Edit: upon reflection, maybe It would not be optimal for me to pursue a career as an interpreter.

A wild guess but you probably spot on !

Thanks Bru. Have you sold the Zesty?

For those who've been around long enough will know, not the first time Connie has pulled a stunt similar... #justsaying

Yoh.

[CogitoErgoSum]

Hoekom almal net my veroordeel van begin af,ek aanvaar dit. Wat ek wel nie vestaan nie is dat DOUBLE J, eers gister gevra het vir refund en ek het dit gedoen. Hy wou bike gehou het tot en met gisteraand.

 

Ek koop al jare op die hub en het ook al my deel gehad van onderdele wat ek kook wat glad nie is wat hubber se nie. Ek maak nie storie van alles nie want as ek 2hnd wil koop dan moet ek aanvaar dis al gebrui en soms misbruik.

 

EASTONS WIELE SONDER FREE HUB EN AXEL,

ROCK SOCK SID MET GEKRAKTE CROWN,

R/D wat gebuig is, dit is maar n paar voorbelde ,maar ek het geweet dis die risk wat ek vat.

 

Ek was bereid om alles waaroor hy kla te betaal selfs nuwe raam by CUBE claim want ek is eerste eienaar van bike.Ek het hom ook brand new bike aangebied vir R5000 meer dan sounuwe bike hom slegs R18500 kos.

 

Ek voel ek word uitgehaal tenspyte dat ek gehoor gegee het aan elke problem wat BOUBLE J oor gekla het ,Ek het dit nie ignore nie. Ek en almal wat my ken weet waste person ek is so die van julle wat gou iets te se het, don't judge me so soon.

 

Double j betaal jou verkoopte bike by BIKELIFE klaar en koop n nuwe dan weet jy alles is 100%. Dankie ook dat jy my nou opnuut laat besef het dat om 2hnd bikes of onderdele te koop of te verkoop is nie werd om jou siel te verkoop nie. Ek aanvaar almal se inset en jul beskildigings, hy het sy refund en die tyd wat julle sit en dink wat nog om vir my te se gaan ek my bike vat vir n ride.

 

DOUBLE J good luck buying your new bike.

 

ps. I offer him this bike.

Either this Connie is a major troll and a fake account for some backstreet vendor...

 

Or he is just ignorant, and beyond arrogant, of the fact that it is totally immoral and unethical to do what he is doing.

 

Connie, please remove the Philipians bible quote from your profile. You are shameful

No need to push the knife in deeper.

Under the consumer Protection Act of 2012 all goods new or second hand have an automatic 6-month warranty.

 

Under the act you have the 3 R's .. Replace, Repair or Refund

 

So i don't know why you don't take the bike back and exercise your rights ?

Got refunded in full. Bike will go back. This whole thing opened my eyes a bit to situations I put myself into because of impulsive decision making. So I'm going to try and set things right and will be getting out of cycling for a while....think I'll take up Cross-fit. I heard it's mandatory you need to tell everyone you getting into that sport.

Nooooooo! Don't quit riding, nobody likes a quitter...hahaha. Crossfit is lekker fun though

[DoubleJ]

Won't quit, but honestly this thread put quite a few things in perspective for me which I truly am grateful for. 

 

Will pay my dues then start to build up something I can use to get back into cycling for the reasons I started in the first place...because it's fun. I haven't been riding for long, maybe 3 years, but I reckon I lost sight of why I started cycling once the "10grams off the bike needs to be lost here and Interval training needs to be done there" bug bit me. So, I've got some parts lying around, I've decided I want to slowly build up a Singlespeed bike and leave my Strava phone at home once I get back into it again.

 

Currently....that's where my mind's at. I sincerely hope it doesn't change.

Now that's a great idea

singlespeeds are basically BMXs for grown ups. It will take a while to get the strength to really enjoy it, but the uncomplicated side of riding is way underrated!

Welcome to SA my friend.

 

Just drop more than 30K on a bike. Sale went well, got the bike within a week. Picked the bike up, first impression of bike shop - good.

 

1 Week later - got ripped off for R300 labour to put in tokens in my Pike (which, by the way is a 5min job and no warranties are void if you do it yourself).

 

Left a moerse sour taste in my mouth. Won't be going back, but will have to for any warranty claims on my bike.

 

Bleh....

What a roller coaster...

That R300 is the retail price of the token pack (they come in 3's) so that isn't exactly surprising.

 

I know a bike shop that just splits them out and sells one at a time. Sometimes you don't need the full pack

R300? Feck I got charged R550 for a pack the other week... they did fit them for free though as I drank my cortado and munched on my wheat free, organic, banting friendly, artisanal omelette... but still.
