Thanks for the heads up, this is very responsible of LET and shows the quality of your customer care. I don't know many other tuners who would go to such lengths to ensure this level of commitment to its customers by standing by its products. I'm impressed.

I've been following this issue recently, and just want people to know that LET was quick to respond to this issue and offer a solution. Pretty impressive for a smaller company.

I agree, many of the big name tuners would often make excuses or just flat out flip you the birdie. LET is definitely going places with this mentality and level of customer service

two thumbs up for Erick @ LET

Just another reason to be glad I went with the 185mm pulley

I see that LET is continuing to provide outstanding customer service. Kudo's for LET stepping up and proactively addressing this issue. Most other companies (if they did anything at all) would treat this on a case by case basis - once you had a failure and contacted them they would reluctantly send up an updated pulley for the cost of S&H.
