  2. Email Darren and talk to him, thats your best bet. He knows more about
    the bedford trials than anyone else ever will. Plus the bedford trials
    unis are basically just what he has around I think so although he
    probably has the usual thing it is pretty much not that much different
    from getting a custom trials uni for usualy cheaper than buying all of
    the parts seperatly.

    That is crazy out of date though, your best bet is to call or email
    him.

    I don't really know what he prefers but I tend to email him as I'm
    usualy home at wierd hours.

    He is getting a site done.

    He won't be like Unicycle.com because he does all the work himself.

  8. Plus he isn't UDC, therefore he shouldn't have a website like them. They
    have their style of things so what would be the point of him just doing
    the same thing they do. If he did have a UDC style site then he
    wouldn't be Bedford unicycles he would be UDC.ca.

  9. He's saying, "Why doesn't Bedford get a proper website like UDC has
    done", not that he wants Bedford to have the exact same site or style
    as UDC. What, are you guys robots? A little understand would be
    nice.

    I agree, though, it would be cool for Bedford to get a site with
    pictures and a 'Uni Builder' tool that allows you to build a uni and
    see what it would cost. The ability to order directly online rather
    than through a phone call or an email might be nice too, but first
    things first.

  10. thanks hecklar.

    first off it isnt that hard to build a nice site with a checkout and
    all, like MDC and UDC have.... secondly i wasnt saying they should have
    one like that, just a site which listed what he had in stock and a
    simple order form....

    I find it abit outdated to have just a pdf price list on a webpage.

    The great thing about websites is that they don't disrupt your ability
    to phone people... well unless you have dial-up, i guess. :o

    Yes, but the good thing about Bedford is the quality of the service.
    You phone, you get Darren.

    He seems more than just a guy you give money to and receive a product,
    he's like a good friend, who you introduce more people to because he is
    honest, and helpful.

    He's running one of the best Unicycle shops, who cares if his price
    list is outdated.

  15. That's great, and i agree, but it's still no excuse to not have an
    informative, up-to-date website.

  16. well i agree he might be agreat guy and all, and very friendly, but
    often, i like to know the price of different parts, even if its just
    for reference and day dreaming...

    like if my mate asks me how much a frame for his uni is, its easier to
    go on the site and check than phone up thats all....
