Good product but contrary to what is indicated on the site, the frame pouch is too small for a standard size smartphone (iPhone 14 pro max). You have to force the zipper to close. It lacks two good cm in length.

Hello Thomas,

We sincerely thank you for your feedback regarding the Z Adventure T1. We are glad that you found the product good, but we also take note of your comment to try to improve our descriptions in the future. Our tests were done with the majority of phones, but the "Pro Max" models are a bit outside the standards.

We would be happy to welcome you again to our store and hope that your next experiences will be completely satisfactory.

Best regards,
The zefal.com team

Lack of information about shipping date, lack of tracking control, and lack of information in general. Delivery times were not met. Package delayed. Shipping prices excessively high. I will not repeat.

Hello, Vicente:

We thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand your frustration regarding the lack of information about your order and we really want to improve your experience. Have our emails with the tracking link ended up in your spam folder? It is true that the package took one day longer than announced from the moment the carrier picked it up at our facilities; we are working to resolve this issue.

Best regards,

My package was looted by the carrier and no recourse is possible to obtain a refund. Disappointed with the way small customers are treated at Zéfal.

The stamp acquired is not useful to me and does not meet my needs. I don't think it's right to have to pay for return shipping. Moreover, the price of this product and the other one that is also part of my order is very expensive. There are other suppliers offering exactly the same products much more economically and even the bag for the bike rack, I found it for a little more than half the price (and they are their products with their brand). Therefore, NO, I am NOT satisfied.

Hello Vicente,

We regret that the product did not meet your expectations. We will strive to improve the clarity of our description in the future. Regarding the price of the products, these are our retail prices. We work closely with physical bike shops and do not want to compete with them with prices they cannot offer.

Sincerely,

I chose Zefal because it is a French company. But as soon as I opened the package, I saw that the product was no longer the same quality as my previous purchase of the same reference: - quality of the plastic (much more "light" - phone placement with Velcro, much less practical as the phone is longer to insert, same for removing it. - and the made in China disappointed me for a French company, the initial reason for my purchase. Consequently, I make a link between the quality of the product and its origin. Previous purchase from memory in 2019. I doubt this one will last me as long. That's my feedback.

Response from zefal.com
Hello Eric, Thank you for your feedback. For our new Pack console, we can assure you that it maintains the same lifespan as the previous model. The new system for inserting the phone is designed to limit the risk of overheating phones. As for the made in China, we are always transparent about that. 60% of our products are made in our factory in Jargeau, the other part abroad. Information about the origin can be found on our product pages. Luggage is the main category concerned by production abroad, but we are trying to find solutions to change that.
We wish you many kilometers with your product.
Best regards,

Overall the shopping experience was good. A couple of feedbacks: 1. The shipping for these nozzles I ordered was way too expensive. The reason I bought them was the original one broken down just in one year. 2. The customer service provided me the wrong nozzle after I inquired where I could get the replacement nozzles. Fortunately I checked the pictures closely and chose the different one at my own risk.

Not seeing my order arrive and especially having no tracking email, I called. No phone number on the site. Thank you Google. I leave a message for someone to call me back. They don't do it. I call back and I'm told they forgot to take care of my order but they will do it right away. I request express shipping to make up for it. Nope.

The basket support for the Zefal basket is failing. Very poor quality product replaced by a Decathlon support which does the job very well. Moreover, I made a request to return the material and I am asked to return it at my expense. Conclusion: Zefal to avoid

The items are good. Fair price but for items produced in Europe. How dare you sell such expensive products, put blue, white, and red flags all over your site and label your products as 'made in china'??? Are you mocking your customers? There is deception regarding the merchandise. It was a pleasure, I will turn to your competitors for my next orders.

Hello Romain,

Thank you for taking the time to share your opinion. We produce 60% of our products (bottles, bottle holders, mudguards, mirrors, etc...) at our production site in Jargeau. Indeed, another part of the products, such as our luggage, is developed in our design office, but manufactured abroad. Information about whether our products are designed in France or not is specified in the 'advice and commitments' section of our product pages.

I ordered a rear rack on the zefal.com website. The site states that orders are shipped approximately 48 hours after the order is placed; this suited me as I needed a new rack quickly, my bike being my main vehicle and needing to leave fairly soon for a trip. I placed the order before August 15, my bank account was debited immediately. I waited about ten days before contacting customer service, telling me that the service might be reduced during the summer; this first email went unanswered. I contacted customer service again about fifteen days after the order, and I received no response. Three weeks later, I finally managed to get someone on the phone who told me that it was normal, orders would only ship towards the end of the first week of September. The person did not take my name, and I still have not received any written response from customer service. In the end, I had to buy another rack from a competitor, which was delivered about fifteen days after I had left. This is really not serious and I don't think I will go through this company again; it's a shame because I am a more than confirmed cyclist, literally living with my bike - I have already started to create very bad press in my family (we are all cyclists) and in my cycling associations...

Hello Cédric,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sincerely sorry to learn that your order was not fulfilled within the desired timeframe. Your feedback is valuable and allows us to improve our service. As of Thursday, August 7, it was indicated via a banner (at the top of our site) that we would not be shipping until our return from vacation, the company being completely closed during this period. This message may not have been visible enough, and we take note of it to prevent an experience like yours from happening during our next closures.

We take your comments very seriously and will examine how to improve our customer service. We hope you will give us another chance in the future.
