I was riding over the Brooklyn Bridge and the pinhead lock popped out! The comb skewer that holds the tire to the bike kept sliding out-- threatening my front wheel to pop off! I rode immediately to a bike store, instead of into work, and they replaced it with a quick release.<br /><br />I wrote to PinHead for help with a 'what can I do now' message and only got this response:<br /><br />"<br />Hi...if it was installed without the comb washer which keeps tension on the lock nut it could come off.....<br /><br />Dave<br />"<br /><br />Um, what the hell? That is not remotely helpful. Dave basically said: you messed up. SEND. <br /><br />Based on this customer service alone, I highly recommend pitlock (pitlock.com) instead. THe product is a bit more, but much more reliable. <br /><br />And beyond theft-- one needs tires to stay ON the bike. <br /><br />It is not worth the risk.<br /><br />Jahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02002273776924264113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442309729907328092.post-34920065514737916412015-08-10T13:02:44.336-06:002015-08-10T13:02:44.336-06:00Great review!Great review!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01921360109165295476noreply@blogger.com
