lone one Posted October 18, 2013 Share First thing First. Love this Chinese carbon thread. Some really nice rides and stuff on here. I wan't to get a set of chines 50mm carbon 700cc clincher's for my road bike. I saw that Lone One bought a nice set last month. http://www.thehubsa....chines__st__896 Question is, what sites are the best one's buy from with best service and is fast, or is there anyone that maybe have a set that they want to sell. The other option is if someone is getting ready to order some stuff, that they can inform me. Another Question. They guy's that riding this type of carbon wheels, what do they think of them and how stiff are they Thanks and keep the chines carbon thread going!!! With regards to my nice new rims, got down to Amashova start and had a flat front tire, starting changing the tube and noticed this had happened to my rim - completely stuffed and unsafe to ride.By an absolute stroke of luck, the guy in the car next to me offered me a spare wheel it worked out to be @PROZAC (from the hub unknown at that time) - a true gentleman! Had 3.14 minutes (mind not completely in the race) to ponder as to what on earth happened to the new rim. The rim tape had been pushed through the spoke hole and the tube has a slash about 1cm in length. The tire is absolutely perfect.Still not 100% sure as to what exactly happened. Got my office in HK to speak to Hongfu directly, they seem puzzled but had immediately said a new front rim will be sent out Monday/Tuesday next week. Impressive service i must say (will confirm once the rim has actually been sent and arrived in SA) Frame is at the sprayer and will be ready late next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
