Specialized customer service

Posted on March 26, 2009

Well, it looks like Specialized will go ahead and send me a new frame under their warranty policy.

I honestly think that they have captured a customer for life. I am VERY happy with the outcome. Only other company that has treated me this good was Rudy Project. They sent me replacement glasses TWICE! Under their warranty and years after I bought them.

I really like the SL2 and really wanted to keep riding it. I know I am advertising here a bit, but with a frame this good and a customer service that is even better, it is hard to go anywhere else.

Everything went pretty smooth and I am not sure how they make their decisions, but since I did not crash the bike, drop it, or stack it on top of anything (45 days old and still had the yellow stickers), warranty is still good.

Guessing I can pick it up tomorrow.

Thank you Specialized! And the guys at the shop, of course.

    Hi,

    Great to hear how Specialized took care of you!

    I recently dropped off my Specialized MTB at my LBS for a regular tune-up and they discovered a crack in the frame.

    They contacted Specialized and shipped the frame over the them. My LBS assured me that there shouldn’t be any problems at all for a frame replacement from Specialized.

    Its been just a week so far and was wondering how long it took for you to get your new frame?

    Thanks!
    Joseph

    I dropped off my frame on a saturday and got my bike, rebuilt on the new frame the next sunday.

    I guess it all depends on stock availability. A teammate will not get a bike cause they simply do not have his size.

    Give it another couple days, if it is under warranty they will take care of it.
