Has anyone else had a cracked cipolini frame. It happened a year after purchase and the after sale service is pathetic. Over 5 months for the frame to be returned. No hurry from the importer or manufacturer.
Just keep annoying the place you brought it from, they'll get the message eventually.Originally Posted by poor service .

Yup. That's the key with any slow service from any company. Note that you need to keep your cool. If you blow up at them, things can go pear shaped pretty damned quickly. I don't know whether you dealt with the importer or the company, but there certainly are some less than helpful importers out there. Which importer were you dealing with?steve said:Just keep annoying the place you brought it from, they'll get the message eventually.

Yeah...yeah...yeah. Luigi drank a bottle of vino over his two-hour lunch and came back to apply three layers of high modulus 70-ton uni-directional Toraya carbon patches to the bottom bracket...or was that seven layers of 30-ton, non-directional...Luigi get so confused after lunch!
Total ****. Most bikes today are well designed bikes. In fact it's the rare bike that is a turd. Cipolini bikes could also be excellent bikes. The OP's experience is only 1. A sample set of 1 has almost no statistical value. In fact it's virtually statistically insignificant. All bikes can have issues as no manufacturing process is perfect. Given we know nothing about how the damage happened, it's stupid to make any value judgement about Cipolini bikes.Volnix said:Everything looks nice if its "artistic"...  Nice looking "designed" stuff are pretty rare though...Â
Actually I responded like that because, as already stated, what you said was absolute **** devoid of factual support.Volnix said:Actually sometimes I think of writing with a different nickname to see if I get the same style posts from you alien... I bet you reply like that because I am Italian and black!  Oh wait, I am not Italian or black...
So what if they're made in China? That doesn't tell you anything about the quality of construction. There's nothing inherently better about Italian made, French made, UK made, US made, or *** made frames.poor service said:the manufacturer has admitted it was a constructions fault. There was no incident to cause the crack. The totally accepted that it was their fault. My grief is the delay in repairing / replacing the bike. I think its a small sample only because nobody else has them. also there is some discussion in other forum they could be actually be made in China! but who really knows
Just think of it... You will agree that I am right! /img/vbsmilies/smilies/biggrin.gifOriginally Posted by alienator .
