GBSignificant Delays due to change in… Significant Delays due to change in support from Saris to Quarq With the purchase of Powertap by Quarq, consumers are now facing a different set of support terms. Servicing timelines have gone from 3-5 business days to 7-10 business days (a change of 1% to 3% service outage of a product). Return shipping is expected to be covered by consumer now where it was previously covered by powertap/Saris. I am overly concerned that this change in terms has degraded the services/support/product I originally purchased. I am worried that there are other change in terms of support

GBMust better than my order with a distributor I had a bad experience ordering the Shockwiz from a distributor (Jenson USA) and they shipped me a USED product instead of the new product I ordered. They also did not ship with the 2 day shipping they stated. It took weeks to get a refund. Quarq shipped brand new product, they got it out the door the same day and when I had questions their staff had actually used the product and was able to walk me through several things!

GBI bought a DZero PM just over 2 years… I bought a DZero PM just over 2 years ago. PM spider integrated into a SRAM Red crankset. Super reliable up until it just died as I was cycling along. Phoned Quarq customer service and went through a few tests. Very polite guy confirmed that it was dead. Appreciated that it was out of warranty but thought they might be able to repair it or offer to replace the spider element at cost- No, no help or support whatsoever for an expensive bit of kit that had seen light careful use. Basically throw it away, zip all product support offered. Very disappointed.

GBFirmware DL failed, quick response but no help Can't fault their response but... Had a firmware download issue, contacted support and told 'it's dead' that was it! Fortunately a few searches highlighted similar issues with other products and all I needed to do was try a different ant+ dongle, really simple but nearly binned a few hundred £ of crank for lack of help!

GBI am pretty impressed with the Quarq… I am pretty impressed with the Quarq team and their willingness to carry the ball on problems. I have PowerTap pedals which have been far from trouble free. The most recent issue is after not using them for 8 months the cap on one pedal was frozen and would not come off even using semi destructive means. The Quark team happily took over..... As to PowerTap, I think they have caught a break. The cycling community has fairly low standards for vendors and quite honestly, their reputation was outsized IMHO
