Ipod Bob Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Well put simply I want to buy this at some point due to price and a crack forming on my frame BUT i've heard some funky rumours about this site I will use tarty for everything obviously. Lets hear some top class reviews to probably confirm my fears xD bring it on. http://www.trials-uk.co.uk/product.aspx?productid=2557 I would only order the frame, but is it really worth the risk ? Thanks Stefan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSmokeyJoe Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 For f**k sake...NO Sums it up really. I've heard too much bad stuff about T-UK to even consider ordering off them, despite the prices..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipod Bob Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Tarty do price match Shame they don't sell the same frame, trials uk one is 116mm and 09 tartybikes neon bow is the 2.5 model 2010 i believe. Thanks anyway thats good information i never knew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-Stop Junkie Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 i dont care about warranty as they dont actually make the frames them selfs No, but under retail law, the warranty exists between you and the retailer. It's then upto the shop to get it sorted with the manufacturer. Go to the manufacturer directly, and they'll tell you to go to the shop you bought it from. So... Tarty.

JT! Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 The real question is would you be happy loosing 150 pounds? Likely hood is that you'll have no problems, but by using trials-uk you're increasing the chances of him taking your money and not hearing from him again, which if you use tartybikes that'll never happen. It depends how much of a risk taker you are and if you're prepared to deal with the consequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike425 Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I've bought a frame from them in the past along with various other bits and peices. He was fine, price was good and stuff turned up within a couple of days of ordering. I guess they could have gone downhill since then but otherwise I don't see the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipod Bob Posted April 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 well thanks for the advice i kinda of have a decision, as i dont have more than £150 for a frame, i would probably phone them check its in stock first ect ect and hope for the best. Or wait till my frame snaps and wait a month till i have £350 to buy a decent one. I would like a TMS Evo but hey dreams are limited by income here haha.

You're going to go with it anyway... What's the point in asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to anymore the evidence is too compelling and considering even their Sale hotline number doesn't even work i've binned the idea now, but i have limited money and would really like a nice frame this sucks, how can I get £600 Did someone say insurance job ?

Krisboats Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Sales hotline is his mobile number... nice. I can just imagine dan trying to take down an order for a frame and writing on the back of a popcorn box in the cinema or something. Could explain why the orders get so screwed up i guess.

Mark W Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 i dont care about warranty as they dont actually make the frames them selfs You'll pretty much always have to go through the retailer before going to the manufacturer or importer.
