Luke Rainbird Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Tarty all the timeNext time, don't even think, just go straight to Tarty. If they do what you need, get it from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whostheman_121 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 (edited) I bought my Tensile from Supercycles and the service was good. It came pretty quick something like 2 days but the shipping was more than what Tarty charge (Supercycles is £1 and Tarty is free of charge on the shipping).If I didn't need anything else on Supercycles that wasn't on Tarty, I would buy from Tarty all the time. The reason I bought the Tensile from Supercycle was because I needed a left crankarm which I couldn't buy from Tarty.Apart from that, it would make sense buying the Tensile from Tarty - unbelieveable service and the shipping is free as well.

Boswell Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Tarty all the timeNext time, don't even think, just go straight to Tarty. If they do what you need, get it from there I dont agree, have a look around at other online trials shops. if everyone goes to the same shop there is no competition between retailers and prices stay high.

ruption0 Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 tartybikes, supercycles take forever for most of the products ive found. tarty is normally next day delivery if you order before 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Owen. Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 never ordered from supercycles as im tarty all the way, never had a problem or delay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2sixstreet Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Have had good service from Tarty. If everyone buys from them then they know they're doing something right and NOT jacking up the prices.Off Topic but why are there so many puppet avatars!

T_PRO Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 It is entirely up to you at the end of the day. Both are very good online shops to shop at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 due to never having bought any thing of tarty bikesi would recomend supercylces.i have used them quite a bit and have always been reliable and quick.What? Thats the shittest logic i've ever heard. I try and always order from Tarty, although i'll happily stray to Chain Reaction or Bike Dock if i need something that Tarty hasn't got, like tyres or grips, but i'm certainly not going to go to another shop just to try and keep prices down.

If they see that the trials scene values their service, they're not going to skyrocket their prices and lose out on thatIt's not like Tarty do everything and eliminate the need for any other stores, they just offer a great service, so I recommend them every time Supercycles have given a fair few people a little trouble now and again order-wise, whereas the Tarts are always on top formI try and always order from Tarty, although i'll happily stray to Chain Reaction or Bike Dock Wiggle if i need something that Tarty hasn't got, like tyres or grips, but i'm certainly not going to go to another shop just to try and keep prices down. That's the one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
