Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 14, 2015 Share I have riden a fake and it does all the above..cheersWas it serviced correctly? Were the bearings in tip top shape? Were the seat post, saddle clamp, headset, cranks and so on torqued and fitted correctly by the person that built it? All that can happen regardless of manufacturer - and then you have a brand-name bastard, which creaks and cracks on every ride because it was incorrectly built up. BTW - I don't ride a chinese frame. I ride a Taiwanese frame. you may have heard of them - Giant? GLuvsMtb, Wannabe, DPG and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton H Posted October 14, 2015 Share Unbranded frames aren't fake , but should you spray a name on it and try pass it off as something it isn't then it's fake .

shaper Posted October 14, 2015 Share I don't think this thread if going in the direction that the OP hoped it would. Whoops.Too close to friday... midweek hump! Guessing OP did not do his research if he previously bought a fake carbon frame and looked at the price rather than the better chinese suppliers maybe. And if he did buy previously with disastrous results, why he making inquiries about the warranties on these unbranded frames?

JA-Q001 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Admin has strict rules about selling "fakes", OP can go read these rules and if anybody is breaking the rules, then report them. I have reported a few fake items. If it is not an advertthats breaking the rules, then its fair game. If someone is importing blanks and selling them as blanks, then its his choice what he wants to sell them for and its your choice if you like the deal, otherwise, too bad. I proudly race china, but do not condone sellinf fakes. Now, wasnt this descussed before already?

Nick Posted October 14, 2015 Share I think its a joke that people are selling fake frames for over 10000 on the hub and not even mentioning that they are fake and come with no proper quality backup Please hit the "report advert" button. If it's a clear fake, we will remove it. We can't monitor every advert going up and rely on the community to spot and report problematic ads/ goods.
