Hi All, I’m looking at buying a Speed Concept 7.5. I’ve been reading the owners thread, looks like there has been a lot of problems. Is the bike now stable and all the major problems sorted and time to buy or should I look elsewhere (e.g. Shiv) Thanks
All the initial problems have been sorted.- it’s been out there for 18 months. The 7 series has a conventional front end so it’s a lot easier to work on compared with the 9. From memory for the 7, it’s only the rear brake wedge, (optional) draft box, and seatpost wedge that were changed
Keep reading the other thread, all the answers are there…
The minor initial production issues are definitely fixed. I have a 7.2 and once I had the seat post wedge and rear brake fixed under warranty, the bike has been flawless.
They also changed the bottom bracket cable guide. Getting mine swapped out today.
