Cyko Racing Wheels
« on: February 03, 2008, 07:39:58 AM »


I red labeled them a check for about 2100.00 per their request on December 2 2007 for some wheels.
The wheels were going to go to anodizing that same week for a color match and anodizing.

The following week he was to send me a sample of the anodizing...which never happened.
I called the following week and he said that they were working on it and he will send the wheel in a few days as well as the sample because it turned out perfect so he had the wheels done.
Guess what....never happened and never got the wheels.

Next week..I called and asked where the wheels were . He said some of the guys took of work so the anodizing could not be done.

Next week...I called and called but got no response.

After all this crap and him sitting with 2100 in his bank account earning interest on it I finally just gave up and told him I want
a full refund because Im cancelling the order. I cancelled the order on the wheels the 7 of january on which day he said he would send out the check.
Never got it. Every week since then I have called and asked about the check. Finally got ahold of him and he said he sent it out...this was over 2 weeks ago.

This is the email I sent on January 26th!

fed ex never came and the tracking number is not valid. WHat is the tracking number,
when was it sent and when will it get here?





So i dont have wheels and Im out a bunch of money as well as a complete set of ceramic bearings I paid for and had drop shipped..... lesson learned !!
 
 I upheld my end of the bargain and he did not.




Screwing people in this industry wont get you far, especially with the power of the internet.

Cykoracing.com is the website for this business .

His email is
larry@cykoracing.com

Address where I sent the check via red label ups:
160 east loma alta dr.
altadena, ca. 91001






Phone number is: 213-220-8824

Any help in recovering my funds would be appreciated!

Hey Seb when you called did his mom or grandma answer the phone?  :D

Maybe he needs a lesson like the kid that tried to screw Canadian Mike over.  :vllgh:

Just say the word and we can make it happen.
