Check back a couple of posts. I posted a nice frame and fork thats in for some paint. Plenty of chiner fatbike rims also available. [emoji106] Tubehunter and Meezo 2
Tubehunter Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Just received this direct from China. Not mine but a clients fatty for a custom paint job.... Good looking and very well built. Pretty respectable weights as well. Weight as seen on the scale includes the thru axles and the fork has a uncut steerer. 20141112_120337.jpg 20141112_120309.jpg 20141112_120324.jpg 20141112_121055.jpg 20141112_121155.jpgWhere did this ship from Bogus? Any links?

Mopkop Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Hey manne, the bikes are looking good. My FR216 is still going strong, now for wheels for my roadbike though. Has the strike ended yet? I would like to spoil myself with a set of 38mm clinchers. Something with a U profile. Whom would you guys recommend?

The shape is same profile as zipp 303 without the dimples. Jut take them to a reputable wheelbuilder who can check them out before you ride them. Mine came with dishing slightly out. Won't go wrong with them though. Edited December 2, 2014 by DragoRosso Mopkop 1

Meezo, are you getting your frames through the Post Office, are the strikes over and is it safe to import?
Meezo Posted December 3, 2014 Author Posted December 3, 2014 Meezo, are you getting your frames through the Post Office, are the strikes over and is it safe to import?Well i must have been lucky with the recents... When i collected my frame, guy i know there, well know mainly because I'm there often said they started striking again in Joburg and other areas, to be honest i don't know if its safe to start ordering again. Remember over the festive season it will take longer as well. My guess is order, if its for you be patient, otherwise don't make empty promises. SAPO really needs to get their act together!

Meezo Posted December 3, 2014 Author Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) Only managed to get this far... Will continue tomorrow, upgraded my Chiner 1x10 with 36/11-42T Shimano, which took most of my time. Edited December 3, 2014 by Meezo Mopkop 1
DovieM Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 I like the build, Meezo you prefer the 1x10 I see?My frames hopefully arriving tomorrow in my container.Will take pics when I get them. Really looking forward to riding my UAM/Hongfu carbon road wheels, just need to find a 11spd Campi Casette.
