Just playing devils advocate, but i find it strange that folk on here are accusing others of being msg or friends etc when nobody has mentioned the fact that 53-11 has only 32 posts, and 80% of those are on this thread.

8 posts in other threads and the rest here.

Its like a lynch mob here now :cry:
But they have at least been a member since Sep 2011, not just the last couple of days....

I'm not lynching anybody but I really don't know what MSG are trying to achieve here. And someone, in their defence, said it was like the wobbly bridge over the Thames. But they mended that without saying caveat emptor and go away. And MSG allegedly went for mitigation (full settlement minus the costs and distress incurred by 53-11's parents) just before the court case. Of course, if 53-11's account isn't true, MSG are now members on here so they could address these issues.

And their website says ''Bernds steel frame, designed and built inhouse.'' Inhouse to who? I read it as inhouse at the site. So I don't know why they're hiding behind Bernds. MSG might like to elucidate.

Need any more info ^_^

If I remember correctly the OP did not want to expose MSG. He was at risk of people losing interest if he didn't name the company. I doubt very much he wasn't telling the truth. there is a huge difference in the way the OP handled the whole case and how MSG are defending their case.

There is always a weak link when somebody is trying to stand against injustice / retailers taking advantage of their customers - I guess we know who the weak link is in here.

I wonder if you were screwed by some retailer how would you feel if the forum members were a bit indifferent (most of the time they are)

Correct. It was only after the challenge from a CC member that the OP named them, though others already had a good idea who it involved. And that was months into the affair. And MSG have questions to answer. Or whatever reputation they've earned takes a steep fall.

MSG. Its plain simple your frame was poo. I have a specialist light weight custom steel bike and it has yet to break in 23 years of racing, long distance rides, cobbled surfaces and 3 or 4 saddle changes.

What a pile of poo. Crap build quality. Simple.
