Yeah, yeah I know...being an oversized clydesdale and maxing out the sizing chart on a suit is setting myself up for problems....but blowing the inner thigh seam on my B70 after only about 6 swims pissed me off.
Even more disturbing is that at least a dozen other swimmers in Portland had major problems with the B70 as well...plus I've gotten some emails from people who saw my post complaining as well.
B70 has a problem...thankfully it does appear that they will honor a one year warranty but lets see how long that lasts if they get buried with returns.
Add to this discussion the fact that I know of at least 6 swimmers who have raced in LZR's and had failures as well....at $400-$550 a pop I'm more than a little concerned.
Sorry DT but I call bullshit. These guys have been making products for years and they simply got sloppy in their production (mine didn't even have a logo on it) because demand had skyrocketed...
I tend to agree, Paul. It's sort of like buying a new car in its first model year. Better to hold off and wait till they work the bugs out.
