For Sale Thyssenkrupp wheels are finally in the US and ready to ship out

Just an FYI. Bilstein finally received their first batch of Thyssenkrupp carbon wheels. Two forum members ordered matte carbon wheels for their V2 and 1299. I cant write what they paid on an open forum. That goes against MAP policy. If they chime in please do not write what you paid. But forum members can PM them. Shoot me a PM if you want to know whether the gloss or matte are available for your bike.

What's a thirst bucket?

I would assume its someone thirsty for a set of these wheels and want to know what the final price is. As per map pricing policy being a dealer. I can not solicite potential buyers and say hey shoot me a PM so I can give you a quote. And dealers are not allowed to post prices below MAP pricing policy. Potential customers need to do the leg work and contact dealers to ask them for a quote. Some customers are extremely happy with the quote they get from a certain dealer and dont even even haggle. They just say send me an invoice

Cycler, How about you send me the parts that I've paid for months ago and you now stop answering my calls or pm messages. You now risk your credibility and posting it here is my last resort.

You owe me my deposit for Ilmberger parts
TRex sliders paid in full and you sent me pictures that you have them
Ferodo brake pads paid in full also you sent me picks you have them.
Xm2 grips again same.

I even sent you prepaid shipping label.

There is no excuse. Make this right, Send the parts or refund the money.

Thirst bucket is what cycler is. Always doin .... like this, jumpin in other threads tellin folks to PM him, starting a new thread about some wheels that are now available. Always tryin to get someone's business, even if it means steppin on other folks toes to do so. If someone is lookin to buy something, they'll reach out. No need to go in a bunch of threads mentioning folks to PM him since his prices are much lower. He tries to be slick and even say I can't undercut any business by tellin a potential buyer "hey don't buy it from them, i can sell it to you for cheaper" but if they PM me asking about the price of something, then I can sell them whatever they want.

If you claim to have prices so damn low that you're almost making no money off of a buyer, then stop comin off so damn thirsty for someone's business all the damn time.

Ruff crowd. I just want my wheels. Ordered the Matte finish.

lol, the man's just trying to sell some wheels. needs to address duke72 though...

Awww did I yank your chain? Are you double0 in disguise? Did the bad advertising guys .... you in the eye holes forever distorting your vision of reality?

Who cares what the wheels look like. This was addressing one forum member's personal opinion about another forum member.

I will agree with @CSV4 legitimate posts about missing goods and lack of service should be welcomed so everyone can see the potential issues.

I don't need disguises. One account and one account only. Your opinion of me or my comments don't mean anything so feel free to keep it up.

Again, just my experience, others may vary.

@CSV4 You said I needed to respond. I dont need those petty items compared to the thousands he got. Here is my response. I want @Duke72 to say none of this is true. But he knows for a fact its all true.You sent me a UPS shipping label. Meaning you paid for the label. Once it leaves my building I am not responsible for it. If I created the label then I would take responsibility. I shipped that stuff out. The items you are referring to are pennies in comparison to the thousands of dollars of parts I sent you. 99% of the parts were sold to you at a certain cost because of an arrangement we had that did not work out. Thats on me. I did countless of hours of research for you on parts when you thought you were getting the SFV4. At least over 20 hours and you know that. You received those parts. Then what happened next? You were supposed to get that SFV4 last April 2020. However your dealer kept postponing the bikes delivery from one month to another to another to another. You began buying those SFV4 parts from me around January 2020. And kept buying parts for it through June or July of 2020. By August 2020 you were fed up with your dealer and told him to cancel your SFV4 order. And instead decided on a 2020 Aprilia 1100 Factory Tuono. Parts were sent back to me as well as to distributors. However not before I was on the phone with them for a while trying to convince them to take parts back and exchange them. Some of the parts you kept and resold. Others we had to exchange. Which I told you I would help you with so you wouldnt lose money.

Then you began ordering some Aprilia parts from me. Had me exchange SFV4 parts that were in your possession for months. All the while I complained twice to you because I was doing all the work trying to exchange parts for you from Ducati to Aprilia. And doing all that work to exchange parts on which I pretty much made nothing because of our agreement. What would you say I made on the thousands you spent, maybe $175? But again thats on me. When it came time to buy more Aprilia parts you bought them somewhere else. Then had them shipped to me so I would pack them up, fill out the commercial invoice, pack them up and you sent me UPS labels. I quoted you for a set of wheels at a really good price. Yet because the other company that you ordered parts from had wheels on closeout that were priced $150 less than what I quoted you on a few different wheels. I guess you couldnt take it if I made a few bucks. So after me doing research on a bunch of wheels. Sending out many emails and thinking we narrowed down a set and me letting a distributor know we would order them. You decided to order those wheels from that other company even though they were obsolete. You also never bothered to ask me if I could get you the parts you ordered some where else. Instead you just placed the order and had them shipped to me. Then after receiving all your parts that I exchanged. I packed them up along with the other parts you bought from someone else which were sent to me. You emailed me 3 shipping labels and everything was sent. But I made a mistake and ordered you two sets of grips that cost $15 each. Instead of them being black and gray. They were gray and black. I also only included only two pair of front brake pads and one set of rear because the the 2nd set you wanted were on back order. So I told you I would order the correct grips. Wait till the brake pads came off back order. And you ordered the Trex protectors and gave me a $150 deposit on an Ilmberger belly pan and chain guard. Just an FYI I told you the Ilmberger stuff was non refundable because it was a custom order.

Anyway back to all those parts and wheels I shipped out for your Aprilia. And lets not forget all the stuff you ordered for your son. You receive the boxes. Then call me up saying that there were parts missing. I was sure I put them in the box. But you were kind of thinking I may have screwed you. Even after all the work I did for you and begged companies to take things back because you got the Aprilia instead of the Ducati SFV4. But since I couldnt prove that I put the PARTS YOU BOUGHT SOMEWHERE ELSE into one of the boxes. What did I offer you? Do you remember? I didnt need to do anything because as I said you sent me the airway bills which makes you also responsible since you wanted to save on shipping and used your friend account. I sent you money through paypal for parts you bought else ware because it seemed that you didnt believe me when I said they were put in the box. And we arent talking about $200 either. You put a claim in and UPS said they knew nothing plus you never insured the parts. So I was stuck paying you for something you didnt even buy from me. Im lucky you said ok you know what lets split it. Technically I shouldnt have had to pay you anything. But as a businessman I still thought something would pan out yet nothing did.

Two or three months go buy. And guess what is returned to my office? The box of parts that he never received. The box was banged up and ripped in a bunch of areas. It was lost by UPS and wound up coming back. There was my proof it was shipped. I took pics of it. He returned my money. I shipped it back to him along with other things he ordered which I made nothing thinking our business deal would go through which it didnt. But his brake pads and Trex stuff was still on backorder as was his Ilmberger belly pan. He sent me a Ups label after many calls asking about the bellypan. But its still on back order. I packed up his 2 sets of grips $30, two sets of brake pads $120 and Trex racing stuff and shipped it out. After the thousands of dollars worth of stuff that went back and forth you think I need those grips, aprilia brake pads and trex racing frame sliders and motor covers. Then he begins texting, emailing, calling and sending me messages. Where is my stuff. Well damn you send me a airway bill. Do the work and find it. I didnt have the airway bill or a copy of it since i printed it and erased that email since then. So now I start to think is he doing the same thing he did with the other box of parts. Does he want me to send him money? I have no proof he received those petty items and I have no proof he didnt. All he had to do was send me the tracking # so I could see for myself whether he got the stuff or not. With regards to his bellypan and chain guard. I told him to order it Sept 2020 because it was in stock. He did want to pay the extra 3% vat tax that was added. It benefited europeans but cut into my discount. So he waited until Jan 1st 2021 when that extra 3% vat tax was eliminated. But now the belly pan was not in stock and would take from 6-20 weeks to make. Its still on back order along with another 30 carbon parts I have on order. If he doesnt believe me. He can email them and ask about it. I have nothing to hide. He knows my first and last name.

^^^ That sounds like a lot of drama.

I have delt with cycler many of times and everything came threw, fast unless during COVID when things were shut down and he told me it would be months. I just got exhaust in 3 days from him last week, so I’m floored to hear all this ..... Concerned about duke and want to hear things go in the right direction but that carbon fiber is all back ordered forever.

Finally a response. Cycler, I won't dispute that you helped me out. But for God's sake I truly didn't get my last order. If you would have answered my calls we would have never gone down this road. You know how to contact me. Lets solve this issue and put it behind us.

Just FYI it was you who slammed the door because you tried to force me to buy another set of wheels that I couldn't afford or need.

I was in the middle of renovations and my Father passed away just after or last conversation. Do you remember I had to hang up with you to answer another call? Well that was the call I got informing me about my Father's death. When I attempted to call you back you never picked up the phone, no email replies, nothing, it was like you pulled the plug. It was never intended to be like this. You created this problem and here we are.

Everything you wrote about for everyone to read means f-all. The point is you became a baby/ suck because you didn't get a sale. Thats not a responsible business man gesture.

So to all the members in here I truly apologize for this but it was my last resort to get a response from Cycler, Thanks to all for supporting it.

Cycler you still have a chance to gain my respect.
I told you before if there is ever anything you don't like just call and we can work things out. I wont dispute the fact you helped me out with parts and pricing. We are all human and we make mistakes from time to time. But its how we go about solving them. For you its greed.

And one more thing, in sales your only remembered by your last transaction not the first.

Way too much content think that could have been narrowed down to a few lines.

As far as parts ,some have been waiting like @hdavidson who ordered carbon parts from me months ago. I would like to say around January. As well as other parts that werent carbon fiber. He received his other parts. I have two or 3 of his carbon parts and was hoping that the rest of his parts worth around $1800 to $2100 would be in the shipment that arrived this past week. They werent in the shipment. I showed him screen shots of the emails between me and the company. Prior emails said everything I ordered would be shipped mid July. However those parts werent shipped.. After he texted me this afternoon asking about the parts I said they were still on back order. Since his parts werent a special custom order I could cancel it and get a full refund. I asked hdavidson if he would like a full refund. He said no and would rather wait for the parts to arrive. I have never screwed anyone over on this forum or anywhere else. And I pay $3875 for a 1

Greed? Thats what you have to say? Greed? LOL. After over a year of going over the top for you. Bending over backwards for you. Selling you thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of product. And pretty much making $0 in profit (I did write in my first response how much I made and its laughable). And you say for me its Greed? Ive heard a schizophrenic with tourettes say something more intelligent than that. I received you email with the tracking #. I will contact UPS tomorrow and see what happened and see whether it in the system or not. Then place a tracer on that tracking number. Ive sent parts out UPS as well USPS where the tracking somehow was never in the system for months. With USPS you can buy and print out your own label which is cheaper than paying at the post office. Then drop it off without waiting in line. But run the risk of it getting held up or lost for a while or lost for good because it was never scanned. So the tracking # is in limbo and a tracer needs to be started. I had a $3000 shipment lost using USPS because I didnt get it scanned. And USPS would pay out the insurance because the package was never scanned. They said who is to say I even dropped the package off. Same thing happened with a set of Gilles rear sets I sold to @BHRN a couple of weeks ago. I gave him the USPS tracking #. The box was dropped off by a third party but the box was never scanned. He kept trying to track it but it showed the box was never dropped off. Two weeks later the tracking # finally showed up and he received the rear sets 5 days later. Regarding the UPS label you sent. I have a UPS business account and have a daily pickup at my business location which you know about. When they pickup packages that I generated labels for. When I click end of day. Another label is printed. My UPS driver scans that label and the package associated with that end of day label. For all I know he never scanned yours because it didnt show up on my end of day. Or it got lost in the shuffle somewhere and since it wasnt scanned it is not showing that it was picked up. Either way I dont have a real answer for you until I speak to them.

Whatever the case I want this nonsense to end. Ill contact UPS and figure this out and go that extra mile once again. But dont use the word greedy when referring to me. Everyone and anyone who has bought from me know I am far from greedy. I talk guys out of spending money on parts they dont need. If I was greedy I would never do that. @Roc can you vouch for me on that? As for the wheel comment you made. Common dude......the wheels you wanted to buy from me originally were $150 more than what you paid for the closeout wheels. You make it out like I was trying to push wheels on your that were hundreds of dollars or thousands of dollars more than what you paid for those wheels. And after you got them.....a month later you even asked me if we could sell them because the original wheels you wanted to get from me were nicer and only cost $150 more LOL. But decided against selling them thinking what if you took a loss on them.

Messy. Got my tracking from Thyssenkrupp so all is well. Super fast, no hassle transaction. As far as bombing threads, I get it. With respect to dealers and price cutting, valid points as I’m sure there is some sort of structure to how low you can go. Not sure how that all works but I saved a bunch of $$ compared to what I was quoted from others. With all the tech there is today I’m not sure why dealers and brokers even exist. Why aren’t all these manufacturers going DTC? Why do I need to a middleman to call Brembo to get me a part when I could just go to Brembo direct, get what I want and save money.

I ordered some Marchesini parts a while back from a dealer in TX whom I paid. He then ordered the parts from Race Technologies who is literally 5 min from my shop. Can I go by and pick the parts up? Nope. They needed to mail them to me. What a racket.

What's the weight saving over the Marchesinis? How does it compare with the BSTs?

Don't know but lets not get another wheel weight thread going, that last one was a mess. I have the Marcesini M7s wheels and the OZ Cattiva Mags so I like the "swirl" look. The Thyssenkrup was the closest thing visually to those wheels so I got a set. Didn't really care what they weigh. Wanted to do a CF wheel Carbon rotor setup and didn't any CF wheels so now I do. Mechanically I like the manufacturing process and the company is a technology powerhouse.
