Simon Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 55%discount on all 08 products at trials uk, 0% at tarty, think i might get from tarty cos uve said that now, also trials uk have inspired frames in but tarty dont for 5 months, ive just broke mine, i think ill wait for tarty yeh?. OOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMM GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGggggroflcopters.This thread is seriously gay, well done to damon and porter some of my fav riders, got a good team going now, ill buy from whoever gives the best deal or has the item in.You are telling me, that Dave, the co-founder of Tartybikes who now runs inspired is giving Trials-Uk his frames over Tartybikes?Nice one.Plus, if someone gave me 55% discount, i certainly know who i'd go with, so that's kind of a no f**king brainer isn't it?

eskimo Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 How come i still wouldnt purchase from trials-uk?The comment about selectbikes. Ultimate low. How Dan dealt with the Jack Balman frame scenario. Hardly great customer service.Theres nothing i could possibly say that wouldnt sound bitchey lol. So i will say nothing more lol. I just find the way how dan goes about his buisness is odd...Fair comment. But that guy i remember got a really good deal in the end.You are telling me, that Dave, the co-founder of Tartybikes who now runs inspired is giving Trials-Uk his frames over Tartybikes?Nice one.Plus, if someone gave me 55% discount, i certainly know who i'd go with, so that's kind of a no f**king brainer isn't it?There's probably more to it than that i imagen.

basher Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 (edited) You are telling me, that Dave, the co-founder of Tartybikes who now runs inspired is giving Trials-Uk his frames over Tartybikes?Nice one.Plus, if someone gave me 55% discount, i certainly know who i'd go with, so that's kind of a no f**king brainer isn't it?More than likely the answer is that they have been flying off tartys shelves and have sold out and seeing as they where first to get frames thats why and the next batch isnt in the country more than likely yet.And where does this 55% come into anything, there not doing 55% of 08 products or if they are its not on there site, unless your talking about sponsored riders in which case that has nowt to do with the rivalry and tarty dont do 0% for sponsored ridersAnyway good luck to the riders, everyone has there favourite shops which ever it is select tarts trialsuk cleanbikes, no point btching about it.edit: trialsuk dont even sell inspired frame or at least i couldnt find them on there websiteedit: they dont sell them the only dealers in uk are select and tarty Edited January 20, 2008 by basher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-i-t-c-h Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 good shout basher!55% off, retail benchmark is you earn a 60% markup from your distributor. so hes prob selling them at a breakeven (afterexpenses), which means if something goes wrong, which lets face it can happen eg poor batch of frames dans just going to loss money. risky tactic!

Waynio Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Good luck to both of the lads.doesnt matter what has made them ride for other people at the end of the day these are 2 human beings who are doing best for themselves, not for tom dick or harry on here.it is self pleaseing and at the end of the day sponsorship is sponsorship. who gives the best deal will win. (usually)like jonny jones has said, why cant people just appreciate their choices? and not question them? do people question martyn ashton? why he has stopped producing the justice? WHY he has got a new sponsor and doesnt ride for orange? NO!its turned into a gay fest just like ALL the other "blah de blah sponsored by" this forum needs a little bit more "POSITIVITY" not someone questioning someones views or opinions?Sorry if that seems negative but it was meant to be positive for the 2 riders involved in this thread Wayne.

Well done anyway Exactly. If anything, this thread has proven that it's irrelevant who people ride for, especially at a level of shop-team-sponsorship. The idea with sponsorship is that someone would see someone like, say, Damon riding in a Trials-UK t-shirt whilst rocking their parts, and think "Hmm, I wanna get me some of that so I can ride like him." However, people have stated repeatedly in this thread that they'll either shop at Shop X or Shop Y, so yeah, just proves it doesn't mean shit. Ah well, gotta love trials drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I wouldn't touch Trials-UK, he charged my mate for stuff he didn't even have, then didn't let know it would be ages until he more stuff in.Needless to say, the order was cancelled, and reordered from Tarty.

Damon W Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 good luck to the both of them, doesnt bother me who they ride for as long as they've got bikes to ride and ive got vids to watch.hahahaa that guy made me laff, the way hes like real casual and blunt, good lad! point is though really like waynio saidwe moved for our own reasons, doesnt mean to say Tartybikes are shit or selectin my case i just wanted a change, and i liked the offer so i thought why not?im not sure but i think it was similar with Jamesim glad to be riding for T-uk in 08 Dan seams a really really cool guy, proper frendly lad, always talks to me and asks for input on things, sooooooooo cant fault it really plus i like the team, because it seams more street based , i felt abit out of place on the Tarty team, despite alot of them riding street, i felt it was heading abit towards the comp side of things, and i felt out of placeT-uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
