Who did you order from and how long has it been?

 

When my frame got delivered the EMS wasn't even updated yet....might be worth it call custom?

I also think so. If I get it by next week Wednesday/Thursday it will be great! Then I can hopefully do my first test ride over the weekend

 

I don't suppose there is any chance EMS deliver over weekends?

Ag, I'm not to fazed. Want to go for a nice long MTB ride tomorrow and afterwards I will go and get the last few things I need to complete the build.

 

Still need pedals, saddle, bar tape, cables and bb. But I will wait for the frame to be delivered first before I buy the bb just to make sure I get the correct one.

 

And tubes + tyres

Been racing it for a few weeks now the 11 Dura Ace speed Di2 works well - and the carbon layup as I specified is really working well for me - yup it is an open mould!

Has anybody ordered a 27.5 softtail yet and if so do you have pics and comments?

[Imploder]

Also been looking at this frame from Hongfu got a quote of $500(Including headset) shipping of $90. Not sure if they have them readily available though, was told that from when I place the order there will be a month waiting time... Is this the norm for ordering frames from them?

 

HI Jack

 

What size are you looking for?

I have one of these for sale.

Size 56

Price: R5k

[Imploder]

Are you ordering clincher or tubbies? Please post some pics and a review in the chinese wheel thread once you are on the road. I am also keen on the same rims, but in 86mm

 

Hey Look

 

I have one of these, size 56.

Let me know if you're interested.
