When I contacted Easy Care, Inc. munufacturer of my beloved E-Z Ride
Stirrups to inquire about purchasing a pair with leather cover and a cage,
they offered to retrofit my current pair, so that I wouldn't have to find a
buyer and sell them at a loss. I had them back within a week and they look
brand new. At no additional charge, Easy Care changed the pads for better
ones and the hardware. That is service, thank you!
Upon receiving a sale flyer from Boink, I called them to discuss their
tights and my husband and I each ordered a pair. They arrived within 3 days
from Colorado where they are made and they are really nice. The fabric is a
beefy 13.5oz cotton/lycra with a self-fabric full seat/knee patch. The sale
price was $44.80 which is really excellent for a full-seat tight of that
weight. While cotton/lycra is not a technically advanced fabric like
Spandura used in top-of-the-line Saddlebums, the price is less than half, so
these tights might work well for training rides if not for 100 milers, time
will tell. Anyway, the sale goes through July and the phone number for Boink
is 800-471-4659. They also have tights for kids on sale.
