Complaint: On 23 March 2006, I purchased two Avon tires from ABE Cycles that Abe indicated were new tires. The tires were not new and fell to severe rot shortly after purchase. Attempts to talk with Abe fortune had failed so I filed a report with the Better Business Bureau. Abe Fortune eventually replied to the report and appears to have attempted to deceive the BBB by claiming he did not even know me nor have any record of the transaction! Fortunatel I do have proof that he knows me and had sold me the faulty tires in question. I had my tire replaced today (8 July)from a local repair shop. On this day, I was advised that I was the 3rd customer to come in that day who had problems with ABE Cycles. Ironically, one of the other customers had a problem with a tire he had purchased from Abe. The shop replaced the front tire and validated that the tire was too dry-rotted to have been a new tire when sold to me. They also indicated that this is an older style of tire which they said is no longer sold, and pointed out that the tire was stamped “Not Intended for Highway Use””

Phone: Abe had deceived me when I had purchased this unsafe tire. I have kept the tire as evidence. They also pointed out much slime inside the tire. Other customers in the shop advised me not to deal directly with Abe
