View Full Version : False Advertising? VERY strange

SO as i look at other IronHorse Warriors online, i notice that mine looks nothing like them. Now i know they made the Warrior Sport for sporting good stores (Dick's is where i got mine), but wheni compare my bike which is labeled as a warrior, the frame is that of a maverick. You can tell in the front where the vertical tube attaches to the other two (idk the names), and in the very back where the gears and derailer are mounted....this is kinda worrying me as to what happened here? Anyone have any idea whats going on with this?

I believe dicks sells old ironhorses (2003 and 2004), not the new ones. So no itis not false advertising.

well maybe ironhorse has continued making the lineup for big market stores. Sportcheck in canada has ironhorse but the lower end lines use slightly different names. It may not even be ironhorses choice as they signed a contract a long time ago with companie like sportcheck, and sportcheck can rebadge them slightly
