Review From Ben In Australia
“It’s been an exciting journey since I first contacted you in September 2014. Never could I have anticipated the amount of determination and generosity that you had demonstrated throughout the entire process of purchasing, processing and overcoming initial issues.
The fantastic service that you provided overall reaffirms my confidence that it is possible to provide high quality products & services whilst retaining a close connection with the customer; a value that I believe gets left behind in far too many businesses.
I’ve been riding the bike as much as possible for nearly a month now and have enjoyed the it’s performance immensely.
I’ve summarized my thoughts over this time into the categories below.
Performance
The overall handling is sharp and stiff whilst being supportive of a variety of riding styles, from slowly navigating crowded areas, long open roads, various bike paths and even cobbles. I’ve been unfortunate enough to skip over a few road crevasses and pot holes (the CDB here is lousy with them) but the frame has handled these nonchalantly.
I’ve tried to take the bike through all the paces including emergency braking, sprints from a stand still, long climbs and short hill sprints etc. Each and every one of these tests has shown consistent performance in braking and handling which allows me as a rider to build of a lot of trust in the bike’s reliability.
On the topic of braking, I’ve since become very fond of the disc brake option as it provides more than adequate performance (particularly in wet weather) and means I don’t need to use carbon specific brake pads when using carbon clinchers; this is for me, an economical benefit.
Maintenance
I found that choosing having a glossy clear coat on the chain stay area dramatically improves the efficiency in which chain grease and dirt kicked up by the rear wheel can be removed. This painting choice makes it fantastic to clean after a ride.”
“We recently purchased a culprit Junior Two bike for both my 8 year old son, Beckett, and my 10 year old daughter, Bella. It has been a very smooth transition into their new road bikes. My daughter noticed immediately the short reach of the breaks and gears. It has made for much easier gear handling. The handlebars are also proportionately sized for their ages as is the crank. They moved up from 24” wheels, but were not yet ready for the 700s so the 650s have definitely improved their speed and been a perfect fit. All in all, the bike is comfortable, looks GREAT, is a low weight for them and performs excellent! We are very happy with our purchase
Thanks Culprit
