Two years ago I got Dura Ace C50 (aluminum rims) and like those hoops, but always wanted the rims to be wider. Last year Shimano announced new model C60 with rim width 25mm and internal 19mm.
Dream came through, that is what I thought...
I bought my C60 hoops form Evens cycles last week, I’m going to pick up them today from UPS, I paid 2400CAD for them, and apparently I just realized they are exactly the same as my old C50 rims !!!
Shimano what a scam.
Most troubling for me are all internet “reviewers” pseudo journalists, removed any reference to C60 rims from their old reviews. Shimano doctored their site as well, and now they reference the same dimensions as old C50, so C50 and C60 is the same thing with different sticker.
Many websites which I will not mention here for now, totally modified their old content and removed, measurements, and weight etc….and any reference to C60 with aluminum rims, without any explanation.
I already paid duty online 450$. Bottom line I do not want them if they are really the same as my old C50.
What should I do, I do not want to pay for shipping back to Evans cycle… Should I pick them up or there is some way of returning without pickup and how to go about getting duty back?
I’m super disappointed with Shimano and shady way of doing business, and even more with all the online reviews, most likely they didn’t even have those wheels in their hands, or they would not remove the content without any explanation.
Anyone has experience with returning not picked up items plus getting duty back?
