Warranty Experience

I recently had an issue with a Ellsworth rear wheel. One phone call to the Ellsworth Warranty Department and an email later I had an RA #. The wheel was sent in and about three business days after my tracking # indicated the wheel was delivered I received a phone call indicating the replacement was shipping the next day. Does it get any easier than that?

My Ellsworth warranty experience while unfortunate was very positive.

Deadman,

What was the problem with your wheel? Were they Ellsworth wheels? The reason I ask is that I also have an Ellsworth with wheel problems.

Cheers

The wheel had an issue with the freehub.
The replacement wheel has been delivered now too!

Now all I need is for the weather to make up it's mind. Either it needs to snow or get nice. I am tired of this not great for anything weather pattern.

Cleaning my 2009 truth and discovered a crack in my chainstay. Called Ellsworth this morning with guns loaded and ready to go to war. Boy do I feel stupid. Brand new chainstay no questions asked.
That clears up any doubts I might have had about Ellsworth customer service. Thats how you gain a loyal customer.

skip the LBS if you can. Call Ellsworth direct. Fortunately I live about 20 miles from the assembly plant. Road trip at lunch.

Well I hope my experience turns out to be positive but so far it is disappointing. I returned a frame for warranty claim last week and have yet to hear back on disposition. I sent two e-mails and left two voice mails but no response. Are they on vacation this week?

Great Service

I have nothing but good things to say about Ellsworth costumer service. I never had trouble getting in touch with them. And they had quick turn around time on my wheel. I'm sure it is you bike shop that is dropping the ball!
