ian Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 yeah it is the green king, but the deal went stale because i saw pics of his wheel after i snet my wheel and it is a prototype viz rim and hub. after talking to other people i pulled out of this deal and my wheel is supposedly 'not at his house yet'. i snet him money to cover him sending it back which he has got. so i dunno what to do. thanks ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caleb Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 What so bad about a viz rim? You can easily get it changed anyway. Seems quite harsh to mess him around after hes sent his stuff just because you didnt check before hand. Ive had it happen to me a few times and it is very frustrating to say the least.

Dan6061 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 yeah it is the green king, but the deal went stale because i saw pics of his wheel after i snet my wheel and it is a prototype viz rim and hub. after talking to other people i pulled out of this deal and my wheel is supposedly 'not at his house yet'. i snet him money to cover him sending it back which he has got. so i dunno what to do. thanks ian ← So basically, You've pulled out of the deal? and Jim is worrying because he hasn't got it yet, but it's not there because you pulled out? Correct me if i'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 If you were sneding your stuff on arrival whats the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 right ive been speaking to the main viz distributor dan ko. i have been running a viz rim but a new one. for any of you that dont no i have a vinco and the rim that was on the wheel he has is only 38mm wide and you cant set your brake up nicely so a wider rim is needed hence the reason for me having a viz rim. i was talking to him on msn and he said i have fixed viz hub on viz rim and eno that'll swap for your king so i said yes. i snet wheel of but after talking to dan ko i found it was a prototype and to stay away etc. so i sent him £10 to ocver postage back to me and said i was sorry etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsriderjim Posted July 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 (edited) why did dan ko tell you to stay way from my hub its all ok to me ? Edited July 14, 2005 by gregtria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siders77 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Yeah, but that's not really on is it? You said you would swap, then after you sent the wheel you wanted it back just because of what Dan said. :shifty: If that was me I would be REALLY pissed off. What's "So bad" about the V!Z proto thing anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 i aint saying f**k all now. ive spoke to dan and been told things about it seeings as it was his wheel aparently. yeah i get on real well with dan and he is only doing the best for me.

It's just one guy's oppinion, unless LOADS of people said it, then I suggest you start backing off the deal. :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_ferret Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 ian was told as far as i know that the rear wheel is new!! DONT LOOK BLOODY NEW TO ME!!! i can understand that some might think its not on but these things happen for a kid still at school its alot to lose! he has even bothered to send postage money which alot wouldn't do! these two need advise not criticism!! oggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 (edited) nah, they was proto's [16:09:56] www.Trials-U: and spokes are very uneven on the rear [16:10:17] www.Trials-U: :shifty: that was the wheel when I was new [16:10:23] www.Trials-U: its about a year old now.. [16:10:33] www.Trials-U: friend gave ultra abuse to it [16:11:39] www.Trials-U: they hub is pretty damamaged [16:11:42] www.Trials-U: bearings etc.. well there you go i know whos word i would rather take and that would be a person who distributes viz stuff my king is worth a hell of alot more than prototypes wheels are and as ben said above its alot for me to loose seeings as i dont have a job that pays em etc so ive had to save up a hell of alot to buy my king.

Siders77 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I'm sorry, but Dan isn't that trustworthy in my opinion. Why would he sell a V!Z wheel that is as bad as he says it is? :shifty: ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsriderjim Posted July 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 The lad i got my pitbull from said, dan ko said he road the wheel for a liltle while to test it and he sold it to my mate and said it was all fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siders77 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Maybe his camera had the wrong date? :shifty: I rode Adams bike when he had the the wheel and it was all fine. Adam had hardly ridden the bike due to BMXing so I dunno what Dan's going on about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 (edited) well all it takes like ben said is for it too be snet back and all will be forgotten but you try telling me that if i sent it tuesday it sohuld be with him wednesday or at latest thurday. yeah royal mail is shit but i honestly think someone is lieing. and im not the only person that thinks this. and i very much doubt the date on the cammera was wrong. andu can change the topic title cause this has nout to do with viz bikes and the company dan distributes.
