Default Crank Brothers Customer Service

Ive gone to Cranks Brothers twice in the last month for two separate things and have received great service. I just wanted to give these guys a thumbs up for going above and beyond and doing even more than I expected.

Not only do they make great products but they back them up as well. So far, I have only been using their pedals and multi tools, but with their service I will definitely be using more of their stuff.

Hats off to a great local company.

You can pry my CB's out of my cold dead hands, but I'd rather have a pedal that doesn't break all the time and NOT know how good their customer service is.

I solved this problem by buying a "spare" set of candy's so I can ride while one of the other sets are in for service.

I've told the story a couple times before but it was my own damn, dumb fault that the pedal got wrecked in the first place...full bore into a rock when I wasn't paying attention. Not many pedals would have survived it...

my friend just applied to work there!

He's a mechanical engineer and not really a cyclist per se (although he did use a lot of cycling related products ((including machining his own hubs)) on a big gravity car project).

Supposedly the guy that he talked to was really cool and he's hoping for that job more than any other.

CB has been good to me too. I lost the end caps on my egg beaters, so I call them up. Three days later, there were four new ones in my mail, free of charge.
