Default Disappointed. ..

I ordered a set of DNA Mammoth Wheels through Outlaw Cycle products about a month ago. 21 front and a 16 rear. Outlaw has had pretty good customer service...great communication so far...other than the long wait on the wheels.

About a week after I ordered, I came to find out that the 16" rear would not allow my ABS to work after going with a 21 on the front. So, I called Outlaw and asked them to change the order to an 18 rear. They agreed.

I had them send me a new invoice reflecting the 18x5.5 rear.

What did I receive today? A 16 rear wheel.

Frustrates the f**k out of me. I am not sure what I'm gonna do. Wait another month for a 18" wheel or throw the 16" wheel on and say the hell with my ABS.

Default ?!?

I would have waited, but I'm a big fan of ABS...just feels weird when it kicks in. What did you decide to do?
