sterling house bikes
My bike never arrived,but they took my money immediately.Five weeks
later, I got an awful bike that I didn't order with eastern european parts.The chain broke straight away and I walked up little hills it was so heavy. I got a 150 pound raleigh tourer that week-which was a good basic buy that i have cycled many miles on-try Argos.Even Halfords are better. Don't try Sterling House. |

There's a surprise. What do you expect for £49.99? Don't try Sterling House. None of us here would and we've always advised against.

I'm sorry to hear it, but I'm unsurprised. Too late to say it, of course, but if you'd asked here before you bought anything, you'd have been warned off Sterling House; and someone would probably have steered you towards this article: http://www.southcoastbikes.co.uk/Art...article=NO_BSO "Buy cheap, buy twice" applies to bikes as much as anything else, I'm afraid. -- Mark, UK "You can safely assume that you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do." |
