Pro Circuit is the Shit! They warrantied a silencer from a used bike I bought. They asked if I bought the silencer from them and I told them it was on the bike when I bought it and they still took care of me. Pretty stoked on them right now. FMF probably would do the same thing, i've been a FMF guy my whole life, but I'm definitely pumped on this new bad boy!
They're Rad in my book

This is what pro circuit did for me. This is this year alone, None of them from a crash, also ran a E-line carbon cover over them. The one in the top left has 1 ride on it. ALL of them bent into the frame with collapse neck by the cylinder. Pro Circuit told me nothing they would do. July I bought an FMF, not a dent or bend in it. Never will I buy pro circuit again.
That's a dent where it tucks into the frame cause the pipe is so weak it bends when you go around corners.
when you hit something with your pipe guard, it doesn't simply absorb the impact. It distributes it to the mounting areas. It's not Pro Circuit's fault that you hit stuff.
Unreal, put the pipe down, pipes don't bend themselves, my fault cause I bought 4 waiting for PC to warranty the first one so it's my fault they bend against the frame. Holy cow people, really.
Still trying to figure out why it's PC's fault that you hit stuff with your pipe and bent it. Doesn't sound like a manufacturers defect to me.
What is the gauge thickness on the PC pipe compared to the FMF? I'm guessing that unless it's a Gnarly, they will be the same. Surely you have measured them since you state as fact that it is thinner. Clearly Pro Circuit doesn't manufacture their products for guys who are as hardcore, or corner as low as your bad ass self.
I bent my HGS pipe against the frame. Oddly it never occurred to me to expect a warranty replacement. I must corner too low too.

*edit: Don't worry about answering that. Would like to end the shit show there.
Now in response to the forum.
I feel less guilty about buying pro circuit now since I know they support their customers. Last 3 bikes have had pro circuit systems and it feels good to support and original company with a quality product.
End.of.story.
The ground smashed my PC pipe, I wonder if they will warranty it? haha jkjk.
PC have always been good to me, but I have never had any problems with FMF either. I prefer the PC just because..no real reason. This pipe however is at Pacific Pipe Repair now getting a makeover.
