Sorry to drag this up again, But this has just opened up again for me now ive got a new set of wheels that I cant re-dish to the extent that is required.
I had originally thought it was my wheels that weren't dished correctly. Pulled them all over to be in the middle of the fork and then discovered the inability to balance on the bike(s)
found this thread & ....
...Well I'm pretty well fed-up with not being able to take my hands off the bars without my bike violently veering off to the left unless i lean over to the right.
I've just been on the phone to fisher, after they fobbed of my LBS, when the woman who answered the phone realised I was talking about the same issue as she had just discussed with the LBS, The tone of the conversation went pretty much downhill. and ended with her telling me that basically the conversation was over and id have to deal through my LBS.(hang-on, didn't I all-ready try that first?)
to paraphrase.. "I have been advised that there have been no such problems / recalls"
she repeated it several times during the conversation and wouldn't put me through to anyone else, even though she (pretended?) to try.
I have a set of SID team c2009 that are really bad, require about 3mm removing from the drop-out.
&
a set of SID XX c2010 that are slightly better but still not right.
Both throw the bike(s) off balance
regardless of the warranty period etc, It is pretty amazing that they don't seem to be acknowledging the problem any more?
Any one have any more recent experience of this. Don't think I'll be buying rockshox any more if this is what you get for your money.
balancing is so fundamental to cycling and frame design, It just cant be acceptable?
For a company that's been in the game for as long as Rock Shox, to be quite frank, This must be a massive embarrassment.
