The service has been very impressive. Live chat on Sunday morning! Rapid and positive response on every customer service interaction. And the bike arrived way ahead of schedule.
The bike itself is beautiful and a joy to ride. The ONLY reason I can't give 5 stars is that it arrived with damage to the front wheel, no doubt from shipping. But customer service is onto it and I'm confident I'll be happy when we are done.
