Concussion Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I realized the "will it never skip" question was asking a little much...it's P and R, its gonna happen, sigh! It was a bad day etc. :$ So today, I asked Hope if the pawls/ratchet will be replaced foc if I chip em` within 6 months etc. I worry cause that all I do.... I mean its a pricey trials hub, that’s not asking too much right?I was told by Hope and a few shops, "Only if due to a manufacturing defect" = the parts were structurally imperfect when I received them. I put the phone down in disbelief and phoned again as I've got to sort this out. (it will be Sunny and warm soon)It seems I was `hearing things` and all parts will be replaced foc within the first 12 months...weather you are brutal or not as its a trials hub.......HELLO! "Well that’s all cool but before you and a few shops said................oh`forget it!"Hope...if your gonna change your policy and bring out a trials specific hub at the same time, try and make this info available on your website or have a clear/stick to it answer for customers please! (stubborn block-heads like me!)(I know Wayne un-officially informed us, thanks W....but I won't be sending it back to him)That's all......idiot and out!
