    Giant Warranty Issue

    I was just planning to forget all this and so that is the reason I haven't posted for so long, but I felt I needed to correct a few things that simply aren't true. I maintain that it's not the product that I have a problem with - it's the way they dealt with my situation. I am glad you have...

    SBS Australia Coverage of the 2009 TDF vote here Good or Bad?

    Just tonight... Tomalaris "Here is the presentation for the most aggresive rider - Duque, the Italian"....I mean COME ON, he's been in the break all day, he's COLUMBIAN! I don't mind Tomalaris' comments at the end of every stage, but the guy seriously needs to relax and calm down. He gets...

    SBS Australia Coverage of the 2009 TDF vote here Good or Bad?

    I agree, Tomalaris is average, he knows hardly enough to be doing the wrap-ups and it's clear he's just buying for time until the podium presentations start with his spiel about cadel, armstrong, stage winner etc etc... Don't mind Paul & Phil, even though they do happen to make quite a few...

    Astana 1,2,3?

    Just wondering what your thoughts were on the possibility of an Astana 1,2,3? Contador, Armstrong, Kloden? What's the likelihood of this happening and has this been done in the Tour before? Thoughts? Iceman

    Giant Warranty Issue

    Yeah I definately agree with you on these points. Seems very puzzling that a consumer/owner of a product is not able to air his/her concerns about a product/the treatment he/she received during the complaint process. To be honest, I'm not too bitter about this saga. I'm just looking forward to...

    Giant Warranty Issue

    Little chance that i'd admit anything like that? Yeah cos maybe nothing like that ever actually happened! Do you honestly in your right mind believe that I would bring something like this up, rip into Giant, say they are totally c--p and stuff like that if I really didn't believe that was the...

    Giant Warranty Issue

    Hahahahah just got a reply back from Giant, from their head office. And guess what, they're going to fall back on their promise of giving me the free fork after I apparently "showed lack of good will by posting this thread".....and exposing their appalling customer service. LOL This was...

    Giant Warranty Issue

    As I mentioned, I went to adjust the straps on my backpack as they seemed unusually loose, and took both hands off the bars to do this, somehow the bike slide about 30 degrees to the left and went away from underneath me. I went off the side and landed face first into the ground (hence the...

    Giant Warranty Issue

    As i've said to the other people who have disagreed with me, i understand your point but I don't agree with it. However you are entitled to your opinion but there's no way I agree with it or even acknowledge it. Perhaps your car dealer might tell you to p--s off if you smash your car and take it...

    Giant Warranty Issue

    That's nice/decent of them. But i guess warranty's also depend on different manufacturers and if they want to help you out or not. At the end of the day, it just comes down to how much they value the customer and the business that he/she brings. -Iceman

    not a fan. please ride a normal team bike/a bike with less crazy colour schemes... isn't there a UCI rule pertaining to team gear/bikes and the liveries?

    Giant Warranty Issue

    You have to admit though, it's a pretty rare occurrence when a fork snaps/shears in half no matter in what circumstances really. Thank god it doesn't happen everyday, because that would be a real worry. -Iceman

    Exactly. Even with 'warranty' they can just shift the blame onto you everytime and give you nothing.

    Giant Warranty Issue

    Giant makes forks only for Giant bikes, Colnago, BH make their own forks. Just thought I'd clear that up. no. I would rather the manufacturer created a quality product for the money i paid and if it broke within normal operating parameters, i would expect them to replace the broken part at...
