whats the latest thoughts on their service? are they still hit and miss or have they got their acts together? has anyone bought anything off them lately?
Anyone?
Not sure what's happening - I can't seem to get the website to work.
cool, thats enough for me to back away, cheers mate
What is C&B seen?
A company/site that sells/sold a better quality Chinese light. Not to worry mtb-batteries is still there to help instead
Still being a subject of threads on MTBR last Xmas
But the website gives my AV the wobbles!
I have gone through some hoops to register on Single Track World to make a reply to this valuable thread. C&B Seen used to be OK - a good UK warranty on mediocre imported lamps, delivered with personal customer service. Unfortunately things have changed, probably because the company was bought out, and my guess is that the new owners are unwilling or unable to maintain it to the same old levels as Roger, the original owner.
I am so keen to record my experience for other buyers that I have written it up at length here: https://blog.jondh.me.uk/2019/10/the-woes-of-owning-cb-seen-cycle-lights/. For the record I have no hidden financial interest in a competing company, I just want to make potential customers aware of potential problems before they commit their money.
I am now the happy owner of a Exposure Race, and although it is 4-5 times the price of a cheap Chinese import, I am resigned to the fact that one gets what one pays for.
cheers mate 😉
Still happy with mine. Only in my 2nd season though and appart from the cable conectors being a bit tight and hard to disconnect for charging there working fine. (touch wood)
