Default Spinergy Praise

I just want to take a moment to praise Spinergy Inc.
I recently bought a set of Spinergy wheels on ebay. There were a few damaged spokes so I called Spinergy to get replacements and was surprised at how friendly and helpful they were. Upon recieving the spokes. I took the wheel to my LBS where they informed me that the wheel was broken. After a short talk with Spinergy, Things started to look better. They said that if I return the wheels to them with an additional $150.00 USD they would send me a brand new set of the 2005's. One week after sending in the old wheels, I recieved my new wheels. Xmas came early for me this year!
In the end, Spinerg really stands behind thier products and are very friendly and helpful. I give them a giant A+. I understand from talking to several bike shops that they were once not easy to deal with, but that has obviously changed.

WAY TO GO SPINERGY

Um, that's not much of a deal... is it?

You bought them off ebay and it turned out one of them was broken? I think I'd be directing my energy there. Who is selling broken wheels on ebay, we don't need that s#@t.

Babybunny--- Um, that's not much of a deal... is it?

Considering they cost $1100.00 USD new, yes it is a great deal.
And buying them off ebay, I got the first used set for much less than retail new. So now for only 150 more I have brand new ones. Substantial savings.

The point to this thread was to praise the service and support recieved from Spinergy.
Contacting the ebay seller is a seperate issue.

OK. **Puts down laptop and waddles over to babybirdie for a make-up hug** Thanks for reminding me to focus on the positive.

Now that that was said (ouch) I hope you gave some real nasty feedback on the f#@ker.

Thanks for posting this. I have a set of the spinergy Rev-X's and they've developed cracks where the rivets are. I figured they were headed for the trash, but I think I may give them a call now myself.

If you really like the Rev-X's and don't have any luck with Spinergy, post me back after this weekend, I have a set of Rev-X's that can be had very reasonably. I ordered the new Mavic Ksyriums and am expecting them this weekend, Nov. 20th.
