Suspension sag settings and adjustment promotion day

[Katman]

There are many times I could have kicked Shaun to the kerb and probably still could but irrespective he is 100% on the money for expressing concerns that affect peoples safety

I'll spell it out Robert and then I'll leave it at that.

If Shaun informed the customer that there was sub-standard work done on their bike then that customer can then go and hit the other shop up about it.

By splashing it on here Shaun is merely saying "bring your bike to me because everyone else is going to do an unsafe job".

As Pussy said - not particularly ethical.

[White trash]

Actually if you re-read it there was no reference to a shop as such. Many or most shops sub-contract the more finicky internal suspension work anyway. So its just as much a reality check about not only looking at pricing and profit but also is the job actually up to standard? If the warning saves someone from injury or even death then the expressed concerns are TOTALLY justified.

QUOTE=Katman;1130162999]Is slagging off other bike shops how you plan to get ahead in business Shaun?[/QUOTE]



Hey Katman, It was not my intention to be slagging any bike shops

It IS my intention to help keep people safer and make there bikes better yes and if I earn a living from that? again

Unfortunately if that requires this little red head to stand up ( ON A BOX TO BE AVERAGE HEIGHT) that is exactually what I will do

Yes I do market myself by highlighting some of the shite I come across, Exscuse me for being a thinker and a doer, keeping my over heads down allows me to keep my Hourly charge out rate down too $75-00 Per Hour in AUCKLAND CITY

WOOPS, there I go again


I Love my job

Yes and BS is just as repugnant. Over the passage of time since that thread I have evidenced plenty of BS and a few Emulators that have been removed with no care of any negative consequence. All in the name of scoring a few dollars.

I dont entirely agree that was what he was trying to say in code. IN ALL FAIRNESS. If this thread prompts customers to not accept everything at face value then that is a good thing.

Robert I know Shaun is small but I am not he would reach the kerb on the full maybe after once bounce

Seriously I have had Shaun set up bikes for me both standard and with mods and he has been very helpful in the past at the track for free!.
Robert has also helped me on other peoples suspension at the track also and helped me get it working better.

Disclaimer yes they both are a little funny at times but they know their stuff and are interested in the safety of people riding which I think is a good thing.
