My thinking is that he got a bargain.

 

Between you and me...even if it is a chinarello...I would have bought it myself for the price that he got it

 

lucky for him it is not my size, otherwise there would have been one moviese fight

You can ride a pinarello frame of R50k and a chinarello frame of R6k and nobody would know the difference Scarry

Where did you get frame from, I am guessing you did not find it in one of the rooms on office lying around.

 

If you ordered it from deng fu chu then probably a chinarllo, if you bought it from a bike proper bike shop probably real.

 

Kit it out and ride it.

 

What will you do with it if fake, I would love that frame real or not.

But if you paid 60k for a chinarllo you would think and believe it was a pinerallo. You would not notice the difference. While riding you would not think oh no, this is not real.

The Cannondale on the seat post tube is the wrong way round. The C should be at the top not near the BB.

Sure, until someone points it out to you or you come to this here thread and you discover you were doobed. Must be a kuk feeling. Ignorance is bliss.
