Pole Bicycles' CEO Resigns, Company Founder Leo Kokkonen to Take Leading Role
Here is the uncensored Facebook page for the people that get blocked by Leo, the new CEO to turn things around...... ???? https://www.facebook.com/groups/391332644913734/?ref=share People that have had outstanding poor communications with (non-existent) customer service for a long time, i would go to the Finnish consumer affairs. They've already had several cases from customers....

Pole Bicycles' CEO Resigns, Company Founder Leo Kokkonen to Take Leading Role
I had three Evolink swingarms fail, several months each time to get warranty over a span of two years.... first replaced swingarm lasted 44 days... second replaced swingarm lasted 3 months but with less riding in that time. It took 7 months and around 100 emails to get a replacement swingarm, for the third time. Unfortunately both Pole frames will be up for sale soon. Worth mentioning that when customers have issues about their failed bikes and no one replies for weeks or months! Phone, email or social medis. They get left in the dark. Pole Bicycles blocks customers from their "riders group page" to try and remove all the bad rep and failed bikes. Problem is for them that now another facebook page has been created to expose their failed products when customers just want communication and guidance about their failed expensive bikes. Be aware that Pole will put the reason on the customer for the failure, did you ride with in it's intended use... i don't know how many times i had to answer that question. Maybe i should video log every ride i did on them so i have proof of what i used it for. By all means, spend the money on a Pole... if you don't plan on riding it much and love emails! I've spent more time and days getting warranty than riding the damn thing! Last but not least, first paragraph says it all. "Pole Bicycles are best known for their early adoption of what's now considered 'modern' mountain bike geometry," "Now considered modern geometry", so go buy a more reliable, consistent and customer focused brand for less $$$ and that you'll be able to ride rather than sending emails!

KS LEV DX 30.9mm - 125mm drop - 385 length

$280 USD
Item: KS LEV dx - 30.9mm - 125mm drop - 385mm length Location: Adelaide Item Condition: Used, in excellent condition. With minor marks from when it was in the frame - look at pics for condition. Reason for selling: Surplus, just bought an all black KS LEV Ti :) Price and price conditions: $280USD + postage Extra Info: The difference between the KS LEV dx and the LEV model is there's a plastic lever on the dx model and carbon on the LEV. And the DX model only routes the cable from the drive side from the seatpost where as the LEV model can be rotated around. Other than that, exactly the same! Length is 385mm to the center of rails Seat drop is 125mm Seatpost diameter is 30.9 mm The KS LEV droppers would have to be the neatest non-internal dropper posts around, compared to other droppers where the cable hangs around in the air while the seat is dropped. It's also a lot easier to maintain lever feel as the cable for the dropper is the same as your gear cable. No hydraulic bleeding needed, which is a lot simpler and easier for everyone!
