    Yes I must look into that, however it'll be next week I am so tired of dealing with bikeinn I'm going to step back from it til then. When things work out it's all good, but when they don't you get to see how a company really is. This crowd are contemptible.

    They are effectively one of these goods forwarding companies, often really slow and often you get the wrong goods or nothing, they pretty much hold zero stock. Takes ages, if achieved at all, to get a refund. Look at their reviews online and you will see loads of stories like yours. Go straight to your CC company or Paypal and just start a chargeback, make sure you tell them you have tried to engage. Start ASAP as some card companies can take a bit of time as well.

    What happened? Did they post it (regular mail) and it didn't arrive?


  • Registered Users Posts: 16 rootsman


    I cant afford free stuff at the moment but got a deal on a Cinelli Zydeco that I couldn't pass up and I'd wanted a gravel/mud warrior for a while. Going to collect it today, I have already warned myself that it will see no upgrades and being a cross bike it will never be cleaned.

    Where did you get the Zydeco?Have one on order since Aug with DLB.
    Supposed to get in Oct,then Jan and now April.More than pissed off at this stage......

    I was looking for a few bits before Christmas and came across Bikeinn. But there was as many bad reviews as good so chose to look elsewhere, even though they were cheaper than anywhere else.

    But what exactly happened with you? Why no product, no refund? What are they not accepting responsibility for?

    I received my Galibier barrier Base layer today, but it's been too cold to go out. Oh the ironing...

    Did you order after Brexit from Galibier? Any hassle with brexit fees etc? Thanks!

    They tried to stuff me. But if you give them a really bad review on trustpilot they usually get off their butts. And of course keep sending messages to them. They usually refund after a week or so. If no refund coming just go through paypal and you will have it back quickly as well. Otherwise a charge back if you didn't use paypal.

    I wore a new one (not Galibier) I got for Christmas last week and sure of course I just threw it on out of the packet and not the first time I've made the mistake with baselayers. Some of them say wash before first use, if you don't they feel horrible on first time out, like riding around with a wet rag stuck to you !!!!.

    Use Aftershokz Titaniums daily. Broke em, go another. Definite winner. Commute with them. You can use earplugs and change their mode (EQ) to compensate but its still pretty poor. Still can be useful in a bind (like using a table saw).

    Positioning, just like IEMs, is everything. Set them on the right part of your skull and they're very listenable. I can listen to Morning Ireland by bumping the volume a bit in traffic.

    NB: Dont do Drum N Base at high volumes, tickles like mad.

    Agree 100%.

    I use HD280 Pro indoors and a tri-amp setup for the HiFi. So I was apprehensive about the SQ from these but I'm actually seriously impressed. OK - the bass isn't as good as the rest of the spectrum but as you say, very listenable. I cycle solo 99% of the time and it's great to be able to listen to music with my ears open. I wish I'd discovered these years ago.

    Also great for phone calls - especially with WFH and going under the radar :cool:

    a medal hanger for all my participation medals.. I really need some motivation this year. Last year was my least amount of KMs cycled and I've been on that wimp list too many times I'd care to think about. Just want a small visual to remind me that I have a bike and to use it!

    It was in the window of Shaka Bikes, I went in to collect a rear light I'd bought and agreed a deal on the Zydeco and collected it the following day


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,686 ✭✭✭MojoMaker


    Great looking bike, you made a wise move I think.
