Hi,

Thank you for your help.

I don’t think I want to pay 10% restocking plus the shipping. I will just return it for a refund.
Would it be the same RMA#? Please advise.

Thanks,
Idiot Customer

In the past S******** has offered what we call a Rider Fit Profile for $150 (refunded with the purchase of a frame or complete bicycle) that we would use to guarantee “accurate” fitting. The problem, even when it cost $150, was that customers would always try to measure themselves without any help and the measurements would always come out wrong.
Well, now that the Rider Fit Profile is free, the amount of shitty measurements coming in has skyrocketed. Go figure.
Here’s my new favorite:

Customer Name: J*******
Customer E-mail: K*********@yahoo.com
Body Measurements
Age & Gender: 36 year old Male
Weight: 165 Lbs.
Height: 5’9” (175cm)
Torso length: 57 Inches
True inseam: 24.5 Inches
Upper leg length: 24 Inches
Shoulder width: 24 Inches
Arm length: 25.5 Inches
Flexibility: Can place palms on floor
Shoe size: 8 US
Shoe brand: not specified

The photo you see above is what the computer suggested he ride given the measurements he gave us.

"The FedEx tracking says my new wheels weigh 122 lbs. I’m sending them back if they do."

It’s called dimensional weight, asshole.

"I really like the bomb pop blue color with the light blue graphics. It makes me think of a clear blue skies day here in the eastern Kentucky hills. I envision putting some orange bits on it to make me think of a bright orange summer evening sunball."

"Size 26"

jhad***@*****.com, Customer

Response to the following question:

Hi, would you be able to tell me a little more about what you’re looking for? We have quite a few different bikes with disc brakes. Do you know what size you’re looking for? Did you have a budget? Are you looking for a complete bike? Frame? Custom build?
