Wheels don't just crack by themselves, you probably hit a pothole or something. And its not Work's fault that you brought used wheels that are out of warranty.

 

you got 3 options:

1) buy one rim/tire to replace your cracked rim
2) buy a whole set of rota's to save yourself money
3) cry, then realize later on that you either gotta do option 1 or 2

oh, and one other thing... you might want to rename your post title as "dont buy USED work rims - no warranty!"

 

Threads like this one make me wish Al Gore hadn't invented the internet.

 

 

Geeeezzzzzzz relax fellas, i think his main point was to share his experience, if you like it and take the advice cool, if not, let him know but don't bash the dude.

 

I really hope there is still enough common sense in this world to realize that when you buy something used and the warranty is expired you're SOL.

I appreciate the OP telling his story to help other people, but it sounds more like a complaint than a way to help others out......that's how I'm taking it.

 

WORK is in no way, shape, or form responsible for this wheel. The warranty is out and you are a second-hand owner (enough to void many a warranty anyway).

There are any number of reasons as to why this particular spoke cracked. A wheel doesn't have to be bent or show signs of curbing to develop a crack either. Manufacturing defects do occur and no product can ever be flawless.

I think you are making a big deal out of this situation because you truly are shit out of luck. Quit your bitching.

 

oh noess thread backfire!!!!!

 

I think the original posters main point was that they originally told them they would help. Then turned around and said that they wouldn't. But, I think most of us agree, that in this instance Work/AKH is in it's full rights to do what they did. The fact is the wheel is out of warranty, move on.

 

This was pointed out before but I think it needs to be pointed out again.

He isn't dealing with Work, he's dealing with AKH.

He's not the first to have issues with AKH nor will he be the last.
