    Ah, that would be the bit where you and your mate started using slurs you learned from the far right about snowflakes - up next is 'cuckservative' I suppose. (removed by admin)

    No, the fact that they outwardly are fine with accepting back bikes that aren't wanted in less than a year is what makes the difference. Looks like reading comprehension isn't going too well for you. Had a bad day? Learned that your daughter's got a new boyfriend or something and you're having a...

    Got a Football Lads Alliance rally to be getting along to maybe? I don't care, don't bother wasting my time again.

    Cheers for the moralising lecture grandad, I'll be sure to take your made-from-a-position-of-ignorance rantings on board and feel very very guilty for taking back a product that wasn't performing to my spec to a multinational corporate giant, with >1000 outlets across the globe. I might give it...

    Never seen someone go from squeaking far right insults to moralising bore in so short space a time....

    Perhaps he might reconsider using vocab from the far right then. http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-pol-alt-right-terminology-20161115-story.html

    Perhaps you should read less Breitbart News and Daily Mail, stop listening to Katie Hopkins and Julia Hartley Brewer on the radio, and get a grip, then. Clearly my case for a return was good enough for Decathlon, but may you spend a happy life picking at posts on the internet wringing your hands...

    Returning my ebike to Decathlon tonight and here's why

    Yes it quotes a full refund within 7 business days of my return of the bike to Decathlon. Contrary to some of the snide, nasty posts in this thread this wasn't my master plan all along, I'm just not happy with it, and good on Decathlon for standing by their products so robustly. Next bike is...

    Returning my ebike to Decathlon tonight and here's why

    Took it off for thorough maintenance and cleaning. But when I own a bike I want to be able to do a tyre change on the roadside with relative ease. You can't see what I'm complaining about because you've never owned the bike!

    I suppose that's the advantage of being a big operation like Decathlon, they've got the scale to absorb a small loss in this instance in the expectation that in the big picture and in the long run this approach will do them favours.

    Returning my ebike to Decathlon tonight and here's why

    Yes exactly, sadly I don't have a saddle bag that fits a socket set! Just baffles me that they didn't design it with being able to fix it with a regular compact toolset when on the roadside (or at least use the same size nuts on the front wheel?). Oh well, hopefully not my circus and not my...

    When the other side of the nut isn't accessible because the rear mech's sticking out, almost in direct contact with the nut in such a way that an adjustable spanner is not viable, it's not. But you're completely ignorant about the setup of the bike and braying like an ignorant nob... Anyway...
