[Closed] RAGLEY BIKES '' The Real Troof ''

It seems Hotlines are covering up alot of problems with the new 2011 model Ragley frames!!! Spoke to Freeflow bikes up in Scotland yesterday to make sure my Troof frame was still due into the shops on the 25th March ( 3rd delay ) they spoke to Hotlines as a trader and Hotlines has told them there is yet again more QC problems! 1st of all these frames were welded together wrong due to the jig not being set up correctly at the frame shop in Tiawan, then the paint finish was rubbish and got rejected and now there is further QC problems and ALL the 2011 frames wont be arriving untill MAY, now will that be May of this year or 2012!!!??? But when i speek to Hotlines they are still telling me they are due in this month and there is NO problems with QC! Ragley advertise there frame to be made in the very best Tiawanese frame shops!!! YEH RIGHT sounds like it, obviously they arnt so who knows were these frames are actually made? some 10 year olds bedroom. So as you can guess i have cancelled my order and got myself a cotic. I would suggest other people do the same if they are wanting a bike this year.
