Quibble with Ribble

[phil_hg_uk]

I think you should ring them up and tell them you want to return it under Distance Selling Regs just to wind them up

Nice colour - very blue!

How clean is your carpet? Some impressive audio equipment!
Hope it rides well!

The carpet is new (replaced by the sellers). It won't stay clean for long!

Nice bikes them - very common in Cheshire - you see at least two per club - very good value bikes....

You may be changing the XO saddle - I had one on my Fixed road bike - just not comfy - too much padding for my butt - although it was transferred to the MTB and it's fine there.....

Oooh shiny! Tollers like shiny! Actually it looks better in your photo than on the ribble site!

Aye, I noticed the saddle had a fair amount of padding on it. I'll see how it goes.

This thread is probably very confusing. On the one hand there are good reasons for avoiding Ribble, on the other hand it is a nice bike!

Glad that you got your delivery problem sorted. was it worth the agro, or should I put a black line through Ribble's name?

Shouldnt be confusing at all....

Great bikes, but be prepared to:
1) wait for them longer than advised
2) possibly have changes made to exact spec

Why not just by a Ribble frame and then build it up yourself, save all the hassle of waiting?

I did..........

Because at least dRibble won't put red bar tape on a blue bike?

The cheek of it............

Seconded...

Actually i've been getting on fine with the xo saddle on my commute. I had some discomfort for the first couple of weeks, but it is fine now. How it would feel on longer rides, I'm not so sure....
