update........still no response from PBK. Alison was the person I've been dealing with thru emails. She seems nice but she also screwed up my order. She has now put me into a bit of bother. Do you think she's doping?

What kills me is the time spent fooling around with this...multiple emails, waiting, waiting...

Oh great... I just ordered a new crank for Jess and a pair of tires from PBK. Guess I hope they show up.

Well, FWIW, my recent tire order was fine. Ordered Saturday night, arrived Thursday.
It is disconcerting to hear of all these problems, wrong stuff being sent, etc. Thankfully I've found a great shop in town.
