Mimi - don't wait to long, you have a limited amount of time to contest a charge on your cc bill.

Whatever came on the X-12 in 1997. Steel.
Waterford's current cyclocross have different numbers. I think X-22 and X-14. http://www.waterfordbikes.com/site/designs/x.php
It wouldn't hurt to go to the Waterford owners forum and start a thread. There is at least one Waterford dude on there who answers questions. http://www.waterfordbikes.com/board/viewforum.php?f=1Last edited by KnottedYet; 03-04-2007 at 06:27 PM.

Waterford will make you a custom bike fairly quickly, and they can build fender clearance and make other fit adjustments. They are GOOD bikes, and I have been reading some recent reports from very happy customers about their attentiveness to getting your bike exactly the way you want it.
Rivendells ALWAYS have fat tire/fender clearance. But their customs have a 2 year wait list. But they do have stock bikes for various uses, including road, touring, and cyclocross. My Rambouillet is their road/litetouring model. Their Bleriot is a less expensive version of the Rambouillet. Veronica has a beautiful red Legolas cyclocross bike from them.Lisa

I'm going to pay a 10% restocking fee instead of a 25% one.
and he'll refund everything else.
Buyer beware.
I'll let you know when the charges show up paid back.
It's so good to have friends, thanks all.Last edited by mimitabby; 03-05-2007 at 09:04 AM. Reason: new communication

Mimi - sorry you had such a bad experience after waiting so long.
The restocking fee sounds like a rip off but maybe you just want to walk away from the thing rather than have a fight with the guy.If it's not one thing it's another

Bruno,
you are exactly right. I know he can be nasty, I want to avoid all of that!
