RAD crackage

Okay so, i got crows.
i didnt like the look of them when i put them on my scooter, so i rawed em with a sanding block.
now, a week and a half later, with 2 days of just chilling, i have a crack in each side of the hole at the top of my slit.
I hear there is a 1 year warranty, and i asked Cory Mosbrucker about it and told him the story.
Now, a few days of waiting for the reply (which hasnt come in yet) im starting to get pretty pissed.
So Cory, if you see this thread, PM me your email address, and i will send you pics.
Im expecting that my bars will get replaced as soon as possible, and if i dont get a reply about this cause within a week (starting May 17th, 2011) i am going to post in this thread saying so, and ill highly reccomend that nobody buy RAD parts anymore, as they (the company) is un-legit.
If i DO get the reply, and my bars are replaced, then ill draw the conclusion that it might have been a flawed set of bars that were sent to me, and ill finally be happy knowing that the 110 dollars (including shipping) that i spent was not wasted, and my dad wont be completely pissed at me because hes the one that bought them for me, and i owe him 150 dollars right now.

use a rad shim, post pics, get a taller clamp, post pics, post pics, and ill tell you if there is anyway for your to not need to send them back, so post pics
 
every one else knows rad is legit. one incident is not going to change everyones minds, its a broken part, it happens to everyone.
 
yeah dude, takes a bit more for two tiny cracks from having a small, crappy, overtightened clamp to win over the whole scooter resource and get the most legit bar company ever a bad name.

1: Learn to grammar.
2: Learn to get yo own money. for god sakes I'm 12 and could pay back 150 dollars in two weeks.
3: Learn that blackmailing won't get you anywhere with a High-quality super huge legit as best ever company.
 
Actually rad made them, i ordered em, then i didnt like the colour with my deck, so i rawed them a few days after only riding flat and the cracks were there.

hahah i got my rads with cracks bigger than that and i rode them for just under a year and didnt crack anymore, they are too small now. thats what you get with short hic and forktubes
 

yaaaaaaabuddy

I got myself banned.
yea i doubt that you will break them. just slide your clamp a little higher si it covers the crack and you will be fine. or get a shim.

Im lucky cause im riding tapered crows with mgp, half knuck and uncut smx so my fork tube is longer then hell with a hella long madd hic shim, :) your clamp is overtightened and your hic shim isnt big enough,. My friend ryan wells just broke his crows after having them for like 6 years or something ridiculous.

They probably cracked because you sanded them. Warranty voided. You changed them from the original state.
