It's on... Palmer Park, Colorado Springs - Sunday (18 posts)
|  It's on... Palmer Park, Colorado Springs - Sunday | Kitchenware
May 30, 2003 11:38 AM | | For those of you who are driving, we're meeting at the trail bathrooms @ 9:15 - 9:30am. For those of you who want to carpool, we'll be leaving the Boulder Table Mesa McDonalds around 7:30ish. It's a flat pedal kinda ride, so leave your heart rate monitors at home and bring your XL testis. ;P

And T. E. actually has superb cust. service these days. The truth is no longer true, it's better, stronger, faster! My ego is stoked! I'll post all about it soon. I can't believe how accommidating they were with me!!!

| Right on! | Kitchenware
May 30, 2003 11:55 AM | | I'm happy for ya, you were riding above/beyond it anyway. I'm glad they hooked ya up.
7:30 would be sleeping in for me. :) Kids -n- cats, man. |
| What happened? | J.S.
May 30, 2003 12:06 PM | | What happened to your Truth? Is T.E. hooking you up with a new 2003/2004 frame? Please post pictures when you can.
I'm riding a 2003 Truth, only 2 months old... |
| Enjoy it.... | lidarman
May 30, 2003 12:41 PM | | I had a 2001 truth and I seen a couple of changes that I had trouble with that seems to be corrected in your frame. One is a wider gap on the chainstay, preventing a dropped chain from jamming into the swingarm and cracking it. The other is a stress relieved Rocker arm pivot bracket. Mine cracked on the bottom of the weld just above the front derailleur hanger--a common defect for that year. The new design distributes the force more evenly on the seat tube.
I took the opportunity to move into an Id myself and they worked with me on that. A couple years ago T.E. seemed to have a reputation for terrible customer service on this board. That has changed; They were outstanding in that area: Friendly, fast, incredible.
I can't wait to heal up and ride that new bike.

| Thanks for the info | J.S.
May 30, 2003 12:57 PM | | Thanks for the info. I did notice the larger chainring/swingarm gap for chainsucked links to squeeze through without damage. I didn't know about the other corrections until now.
I'm glad T.E.'s making a good effort to restore customer service quality. Let us know how the ID works out once you recover.
Here's a picture of my steed, dubbed "Darth Maul" by one of my riding buds:

May 30, 2003 1:20 PM | | Is that still a decent ride? When I lived there, they were building homes into the park. Between that and the hiker Nazis, I thought that Palmer Park would end up getting de-biked the way of Garden of the Gods... |
