Probably just me that gets frustrated by misadvertised bikes (equally I know some of you get frustrated by people calling motorcycles, bikes)

FFS it's your job and it's illegal




Not Rs

It's not hard, if it hasn't got an orange frame and a high front mud guard, it's not a bloody R (doesn't apply to 2023 re introduced model)

Quite common I think.

I keep my eye out for used Kinesis Tripster ATR's

They're a mid/high end titanium bike (bicycle). Very often AT's (regular Aluminium and lower spec bike) are advertised as ATR's.

Probably catches enough people out to make it worthwhile.

Amazing how arsey bike shops get when you message them to highlight the innocent mistake.

It's too common and it's funny how they always seem to make the mistake for a better model

This one particularly bugged me has had a huge sign saying they stand behind every bike they sell

Or mis-sell biggrin

Orange frame is important as are orange wheels.

You'd think Premier being a KTM dealer would do better. A colleague has bought two used Japanese bikes from them.
