Hi Jamie, I have learned from experience to go bulk with people from other provinces is a bit of a hassle! And you were the only one that sent me a PM, so i guess no-one else is in on this ...2 sets would leave us nowhere in negotiating for a better price/shipping.
Well my offer still stands if someone is serious, if we ask for a deal say on 10 sets they should give us some discount. It will make life even easier if they ship to 1 location (say all the western cape okies).
So we have a real interest on a bulk order... I unfortunately think the western cape order would work well but not a nation wide order (i think we might neg a good rate on everything but well ship from china to 2 locations). If theres anyone with a REAL interest please inbox me, i will negotiate a good deal for everyone and well split what ever the costing works out on. If we buy bulk they should give us a discount not to mention a better shipping rate. Inbox me if your serious about this ! Im leaning more towards 1 supplier only (honfu) as i heard great reviews about them ! Im looking at 38mm to 50mm wheelset ( ill probably take 1 set of each).
I want to pull the trigger on a set of carbon wheels or rims... but need advice please (only from Hongfu). I have a set of Fulcrum Racing 7 wheels... love them but not sure if its worth wile to just order "rims" from Hongfu instead of wheels. Does anybody here know if their hubs + spokes will add more or less weight to my wheels... if unsure ill just buy the wheelset. So i want a low cost solution to get myself in the carbon wheels club... sure someone here had experimented with this. Seems everyone just buy wheelsets and not rims. If i do buy i would like to buy with someone here (so we can share the shipping cost also). So im open for either rimms or a wheelset (i dont want to exceed 50mm, so a 38 or 40mm will be great)... i am a weight weenie!!!!
Thats awesome to hear!!! As said before that was my only concern (not the chinese but carbon wheels in general). But hearing this i must change my mind and join the nicer carbon wheel family!!! Always loved the yoeleo bike wheels for some reason...they would look so sexy on my bike! Thanks for sharing.... the mrs wont like this... got to buy them behind her back now...
for all the potholes ... thats the only reason i havent joined the carbon wheel club yet! Dont want to see 7K crack on a road that should be nicely surfaced.
Think they will work well in europe where people want to travel by "foot" and do sightseeing... in South africa im battling to see this happening. South africans will probably think your to poor to have a car riding that thing. Anyway i love it and seems to be a fun toy!!! Those guys seems to know their business and i hope they do well!
With 60K... im sure you can go ride somewhere in europe for a week ! Just my thought.. Anyway i think this will turn into a fully PRO race in the future! (which is not a bad thing)
I wanted to get myself the FM208.... and your right its an allmost identical copy of the Tarmac. Thing is its pricey (i think it was $850) and with shipping and all the rest + exchange rate it will cost to much... so i didnt buy it. But if you do...please post it her mate!
It doesnt matter if your taking the old ones or new... the reviews actually tells me that the company are of high standard so a newer wheel wont be inferior to the old ones. And i heard great things if you need after sales service. I would definitely use Yoeleo if i was you... only hear great things. I also loved the boras (more than you know) but since the fake pinarellos ill feel fake on them even if their real... if you know what i mean. Yoeleo quoted me $100 for re branding them to what ever you like (make your own brand) but guys on here like Bogus can sort you out to make super cool wheels !!! and youll have one of a kind! Let us know what you do...im following this now...
I know yoeleo bike very well... when i did research on chinese frames and wheels i though their wheels were the very best! I had no reason to doubt them and the reviews are solid! I havent bought from them yet but i wont think twice. If you do buy from then please please post your reviews here...i would love to know! The blueish decals on them looks soooo hot!
Ag no man!!!! So sorry to hear this! I remembered when you build this up... i really liked every part and now the F#@$#s just takes it! Hope you get it back and found the oke that took it !
i think the best here is to have an alternative route, even if its just a out and back on the highway. The people that came far (not me) let them have a ride and stay in their hotels which they paid for. If they cancel and we dont get refunded.... throw every single cent into "stay wider of the rider" every night when the soaps re on! Let every person watching soaps see that we want a safer road for all! Hope they dont cancel! Im ready for my 02h50m !!!
I got the Garmin Forerunner 15 as my strava works only when it feels like it! Very very impressed !!! Cheap and works 110%! Love the data display on garmin connect. https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/into-sports/running/forerunner-15/prod145621.html
Well...im yet to be convined. A few times now whilst cycling was on they switch to something else (tennis and xgames). And sometimes they wait JUST before they cross the line then its ADD time! Frustrated the cr@p out of me. Ill rather watch online.
Just a suggestion guys.... since your in the business and your always looking for more business ventures, why dont you do over shoes? Ill for sure buy from you and they keep the shoes soooo clean! Great way to advertise your brand also!
