probikekit shipment
I ordered a descente jersey from probikekit sometime during january 8th, a thursday, and I still haven't gotten the jersey yet. I live in California. Should I ask them about it, I know they're busy people.

Three weeks have passed. I don't think that a polite inquiry would be out of line.

Not out of line at all, ask them. I've shot them a couple of emails concerning shipments, they've always responded quickly and politely.

I ordered DA pedals from PBK last week on thu and received them 4 days later on monday. I'm in cali as well. I was amazed that it came quicker than the performance order I had ordered on the same thu.

I just received my wheelset yesterday, under 7 days from time of order to my door. The online tracking system appeared to be useless; I'd send a polite email, why not?

I ordered a wheelset last month, it arrived in 10 days. The box contained two
rear wheels. PBK made everything right in the end, but who is this guy in the
shipping dept.?

That's what happened to me as well - got two rear Aksiums. They don't have them on the website anymore (there was a thread here and we all bought them out!). So I guess they are going to come up with some sort of upgrade for me as well. Could you let me know what wheel you returned and what you upgraded to? Did you return the whole set or just the extra rear?
I really don't want an upgrade - I want a front wheel!

Went with Campy Vento and I'm glad I did. The box that the mavics came in was semi-crushed
and punctured. Wheels were loose inside the box. The Campy came packaged the way I
would want my wheels to be shipped. Snug and secure.

Sounds like it worked out ok for you. I need Shimano compatible and it doesn't look like they have anything similar in stock - hopefully they'll have an extra front sitting around they can send me. I mean, if we're getting two rears, somebody out there is probably getting two fronts, so...

What online tracking system? I got an order number, but can't find any tracking system on their website! Is it hidden somewhere?

I think PBK gives you options for how the package is delivered. If you selected something other than Parcel Force, it might not allow for tracking.

Felt the same, I had the Aksiums and sent both rear wheels back.
Went with Campy Vento and I'm glad I did. The box that the mavics came in was semi-crushed
and punctured. Wheels were loose inside the box. The Campy came packaged the way I
would want my wheels to be shipped. Snug and secure.
