LOOK road frames

[GoLefty!!]

Whats the general perception of the LOOK brand now in SA?

Many years ago it was seen as premium with shaky back up service.

 

Has this changed? If you are owner of a LOOK bicycle, whats your experience been like.

The new importer seems more engaging with potential customers, again, what your (the user) experience?

I know someone that rode one for years and it broke not to long ago and it got replaced with a brand new one - not a problem.

Very nice looking but seen to be overpriced. Not sure if the benefits equal the price tag. Eugene2010-01-03 02:49:16

I bought a 585 Origin over 3 years ago. I too was concerned over the brand, as it's seldom you see them around, but it gave such a comfortable ride that my mind was made up. A year and a half later during a service it was discovered that the BB insert was working loose from the carbon shell [and this after about 14,000Km of riding]. There was no quibble from the local agent to replace it with a brand new 2009 585 frame. They also included the new series seat post for the new frame at no charge [naturally the old one was returned with the old frame]. I must also add that when I bought the original frame I registered it on the Look manufacturers website. Also, when I needed a new chain-stay protective sticker they posted one to me at no charge. So, I've had nothing but good service from the local agent, who is also very active on The Hub as MR LOOK.
