I can’t win. Pivot fail.

- Start date
I just picked up a LES set-up as SS. The thing is unreal. Can't believe how much fun it is to ride...even on rocky, technical Essex County trails.
Guaranteed podium bike.

Well I have started the process through Knapps and they and Pivot both know that I have some big races I want to do next month and to see how we can expedite this as fast as possible. I will update.

No, I actually said that to see if the process can be done in less than a month.I'm sure the big bosses at pivot are have a conference call right now discussing the best way to expedite Dave Taylor a replacement frame.
I think I've cracked every carbon hardtail I've ever had, except for the current one. I did crack it but I got a replacement which hasn't cracked....yet.
If it's carbon, it's going to break eventually. There are some exceptions but this is usually the case.
Plus for a guy who hovers in the 190lb range, maybe a steel or Ti frame would be better? Then you would be able to fix the cracks yourself.....right?
I'm not helping, am I?

We send those down to our other store. The only bikes that hit my stand are 10k and up...

Hopefully they get one to you quickly. I was waiting for a few mknthes for my first frame. Second(warranty) was around 5 weeks. It sucked waiting for so long only for it to break so quickly. Warranty replacement is already creaking like the first one ;(
Might be time to step up to a ti bike

Not a guarantee of stepping up. Some of you might remember Jeff O'Hara from CC, he had a Lynskey that cracked. He was pretty disappointed.

I explained to @Riggedfmx that ti is awesome 5% of the time. The other 95% it was welded incorrectly and frame is worthless. Ti is not forgiving to work with.Forums tend to be full of enablers.
