^^^ +1

I think it was inevitable that the seller would get banned. They admitted to selling damaged wheels without full disclosure and displayed little care for the risks assumed by the buyer. No forum needs or wants those kinds of members.

The sponsor should never have sold the repaired wheels. Again, what forum wants a sponsor that sells dangerous products to the forum membership.

LOL @ "Stop your rhetoric Don"...it's only a matter of safety for you and those around you (and whoever else unknowingly has wheels about to fall out from under them).

Edit: Looks like IB is stepping up, lets hope!
I stand corrected, glad to see 6speed/IB step up! Hope it works out Don.
