Well I now I finally have a chance to sit down and write a review of universal cycles. I ordered $1250 USD worth of goods. I thought I would take advantage of the 15% off for orders over 300 and maximize the shipping as I'm one of those crazy canadians who splurges on internet orders.
Some friends also joined in on the order so the shopping kart went from my wanting to buy a pair of FSA XC300 wheels to getting custom built wheels by them due to their super attractive prices.
The wheel set I recieved is very nicely done. I got Hope Pro 2s, DTswiss Supercomp spokes, Mavic 717XC Discs. Those came to 490 USD. Way cheaper than anywhere else I could find just buying parts individually. The set came in at 1623g with rim tape, which is amazing.
All packages were neatly packaged and no damage at all. I had everything shipped via USPS from USA to Canada.
The order took about 2 weeks as I had some stuff that were backordered or required Universal to get from Hope directly, plus the wheels needed to be built.
Overall I'm super happy. Mike, Matt, Josh and the rest of the crew there continually assured me over the phone that everything was A OK. Each time I was greated by knowledgable, friendly and helpful people, which is to say amazing as some online bike stores don't know their products that they are selling.
I will certainly do business again with them as soon as my american express is wiped clean. Best service customer service ever! Even better than the customer service I get from my subaru dealership after plunking down 30K for a car...
