Only issue was the seatpost clamp, but I got it to work.That is the only thing I found with the chinese products, the seatpost clamps are dodge.

Jaguar Shark Posted May 26, 2013 Share Just finished my FM015 build from Hong FuGreat Ride. 7.1kg as is. that is bloody pretty!Am thinking of getting the same frame, or an FM066; also from Hongfu let us know how it rides- my only hesitations are from those seatstays- I'm worried they'll sacrifice ride comfort...Again well done on a brilliant build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cippo Posted May 26, 2013 Share As far as I heard swift is made in the East, rebranded elsewhere i think in the UK. Designers are in Europe, company started by a Saffer, Mark Blewitt. Frames are then manufactured at their own facilities in Asia and headquarters are in Asia. I have seen a few of the bikes here in racing groups. Seems pretty solid. Bikeradar have reviewed them and consistently gave them 4,5 stars. Similiar setup I think to Silverback but comparitively up there with the best of the top end bikes according to international reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0adrunner Posted May 26, 2013 Share I'm looking for a carbon Seatpost. 400mm x 27.2. Dengfu has a 27.2mm but the length is not mentioned and flyxii doesn't have one on their website. Should I just e-mail them and ask? Any experience/advice on carbon seatposts? For MTB (Merida uses 27.2mm). 350mm is too short for me. Any idea if the clamp is carbon? Edit: By clamp I mean where the seatpost "clamps" to the saddle.(not sure what it's called?) Thanks Edited May 26, 2013 by r0adrunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK Killer Posted May 28, 2013 Share has anyone heard of UZZIEL Core 29er carbon toray Dual suspension frame? Ordering a frame from Cyclebuzz for R8500 and was just wondering if anyone had any opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a picture of it? I'm might be very wrong, maybe cyclebuzz branding it themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
