1Tonne vs Qmoto?

[tigertim20]

Nothing can come back at Mr Harris if the gear fails so....would he in fact wear it? own it?
.

he has been quoted as saying he would happily wear 1tonne gear if he were to race again

When I 1st saw this thread, I thought, it would be nice for the two dealers to keep out of it all together and let peoples own personal experiences speak for themselves. Own foot -aim -load- fire

agree, obviously they are going to back their own product!!

The ongoing need to justify a brand is laughable and then to come out and say it just a hobby is ridiculous.
...By all means do the hard sell if thats what it takes but using a little maturity and tact will go a long way to ensure your business a success.

+1.

You would, I can just see you at the next rally, and I already hear the grief from the pink pursed one

[Maha]

Oh dear Maha Maha Maha, I been going for 8 years and still going thanks, whats wrong with having a little business on the side, is the word a "hobby" not ideal ?
whats the negative in the word Hobby ?
Shall I call it a home based business, would that make you happier?

Hard Sell wtf, I dont need to buddy specs and performance speak for them selves dude.


it would surprise alot of people that the world is a fuck load bigger than KB

So why are you all too quick to climb up all over a competitors gear?
Is KB your domain?
Are others not allowed to pedal their gear on here?
If QMoto ''specs and performance speak for them selves'' ..why would you even feel the need to justify this very point time after time?
Do the buying public need reassuring?
I recall not so long ago yourself and Mr 1Tonne coming to some agreement over the issue of gear slapping online?

How will you decide whether to wear these or your Batman Dark Knight leathers?

[Quasievil]

So why are you all too quick to climb up all over a competitors gear?

1tonne arent a competitor, Alpinestar and Revit and similair are our competitors
why would I set my sights so low, anyone can import gear cheap, I dont do that.

Is KB your domain?

No its Spanks, he owns it not me

Are others not allowed to pedal their gear on here?

not many bother no, KB isnt the world you know

If QMoto ''specs and performance speak for them selves'' ..why would you even feel the need to justify this very point time after time?

because I was invited to as a member like anyone else

Do the buying public need reassuring?

Yes, many dont read specs they just read price tag and many get ripped off

I recall not so long ago yourself and Mr 1Tonne coming to some agreement over the issue of gear slapping online?

Who is slapping ? Im not even concerned about 1tonne, if I was I would have imported a heap of low priced stuff and dumped it on the market for a low price like 1 tonne and Moshin and the other trademe sellers have done or do, Im not interested in that market, not even remotely...........its theirs they can have it good luck

Can someone start a thread Qmoto vs Alpinestar so I can take on someone worthy ?

[Mom]

FFS! When will a gear discussion be just that, a discussion.

[tigertim20]

You would, I can just see you at the next rally, and I already hear the grief from the pink pursed one

Ill sei fthey can do him a pink one to match his purse.

OK, so explain this to me, an alpinestars suit is about $899
or I could buy a qausi viper and estremos, giving me a 2 piece, for a total of what $765? - actually i believe i was offered estremos for $50 off when i got my jacket as a package, so that could be as low as $715

So your prices are over a hundred bucks difference to alpine stars for the same qaulity.

So If you can provide the same qaulity for a lesser price than a competitor, why is it an impossible task that someone elsemight be able to make over-all equivalent qaulity stuff for the same, or a fraction less?

Are you an international giant with greater buying power thus giving you better purchase price than alpinestar, hence your lower prices? - no, its 'just a hobby'

You arent doing yourself any favours qausi, and frankly you lose potential customers every time you post on gear threads.

After all the 'my gear is awesome and we dont make fuckups' comments you made last night, I posted pictures of TWO of your products that are only months old that were deteriorating, and you basically accused me of a) making it up b) tried to say the gear in the photos wasnt your gear at all and c) accused me of fabricating the existence of another customer with damaged qausi gear.

Youve lost me as a repeat customer, and you have definitely lost me as someone who, up untill yesterday, had actively gone out and recommended your gear to others.

If you are asconfident in your gear as you say, then there would be no need to come on here, it would sell itself.

Oh, and for what its worth, I dont consider qausi gear to be as good as alpinestar, its good gear, but not that good.

I wear Qmoto gear. Jacket and pants.
I am happy with the quality, can't speak for crashing in them, haven't tried that yet.

When I come to replace my gear I will check out Qmoto's range. However I will probably end up with something else because I am now riding a cruiser and don't feel as comfortable with the armour where it is in the gear I have now.

If quasi has a more cruiser oriented range I would look at that. The next set of leather for me would be more based around comfort than protection.

So possibly a more supple leather with a nicer liner, a more relaxed cut. But that isn't what Qmoto is about so expecting that from the gear wouldn't be right.

I have had the odd issue with my gear and Quasi fixed it up no worries, even went beyond what I would expect him to do on an old jacket on the most recent of occasions.

So what I am saying to the OP is consider your riding style and what you are wanting from your gear too. Maybe that will point you in one direction or the other.



Sure he can come across a little prickly some times and even a tad aggressive, but I have definitely got what I paid for from his gear.

Is that US$ or NZ$?

[nzspokes]

Moshin and the other trademe sellers have done or do, Im not interested in that market, not even remotely...........its theirs they can have it good luck

I have a Moshin jacket which I really like and am about to buy a Shift summer one. I guess im scum and not worthy to in the same country.

Not true actually I got two sales today related to this

and further not true when I post in gear threads and give stuff away for free or for next to nothing, the amount of people I have helped out on this site is significant.

I cant help it if my specs are better than 1tonne, its not made up its a fact, as requested by this thread name which was Qmoto vs 1 tonne
I rose to the challenge and Qmoto is the clear winner unless someone can post up a better spec for like products???? no ..............no one ???

[carver]

i find all that cheap shit is too bulky and heavy, like being a fat chic for a day

[Quasievil]

After all the 'my gear is awesome and we dont make fuckups' comments you made last night, I posted pictures of TWO of your products that are only months old that were deteriorating

Youre such a shit stirrer whoever you are behind youre screen name.
And frankly posting up pictures and complaining without even making us aware of your issue is nothing but wanky
Last night I even offered to fix your unusual velcro issue.

Youve lost me as a repeat customer, and you have definitely lost me as someone who, up untill yesterday, had actively gone out and recommended your gear to others.

This is good news as wanky customers are not required or wanted.

If you are asconfident in your gear as you say, then there would be no need to come on here, it would sell itself.
