Want a rack or cargo bike? Don't buy a Cetma.

[QUOTE=seanile;2471044]oh yea, dude has been a cluster for years. i accidentally ordered from him last March before checking the web reviews. i cancelled and bailed early enough (May) to get paypal to refund me due to his inaction, and he failed to even challenge the refund.
screen-capped these lies as evidence of his failure to deliver.

Yep. PayPal to the rescue!

Dang that’s too bad because I liked my rack but that was 8 years ago and even then I had to keep emailing him. Did he ever have an assistant?

he wasn't charging enough for racks

I made the mistake of paying for one of Lane’s bikes last July (2019). I wanted to support a small business...He’s stopped responding to all inquiries months back. I actually got a lien on him but it turns out he is not even a business since late last year. He’s taking orders but I doubt anyone gets what they pay for at this rate.
I really recommend against trusting the guy.

He's a thief. I feel sorry for him because he makes really great stuff.

Sorry to hear but sadly not surprised. How'd you pay him?
