Chinese Carbon Road Bikes > Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components

Looking for a knowledgeable mod for road section.

Sitar_Ned:
As I stated in another thread, I've had a few guys asking that a chiner road section be added to the forum... So here she be.

I was researching the topic I came across this thread on the road bike forum: http://forums.roadbikereview.com/bikes-frames-forks/chinese-carbon-picture-thread-255186.html

and the very first post read:


--- Quote ---I as many of us have gone the way of Chinese carbon and therefore like to look at other bikes of the same. I like to see what others have done with this blank canvas with their paint and builds. The only problem is that there are hundreds of pages in the normal Chinese carbon thread and you have to sort through so much to see what your looking for.

So, I figured might as well add a home for road chiners here at Chinertown. At first it will just be contained in one section/board but as it grows it can be expanded out just like the MTB section is now.

That said, nor myself or the other mods know jack about road chiners, so the only way this part of the forum will have a chance at thriving is if it is moderated by someone with a passion for road bikes, specifically for chiner road bikes and the sharing of information related to the topic. With that in mind, it seemed logical to add a mod specifically for this section of the forum.. If you're interested and fit the description, or know someone that is then please hit me up with a PM and perhaps we can work something out.

I will say that even though I'm not a road biker.. some of these road chiners are pretty awesome to look at. You can tell people have put lots of thought into their component selection and paint/graphics designs. Would love to see the section gain momentum simply to be able to watch more chiner builds develop.

Thanks for reading.

Not sure about forum etiquette but is is worth putting the word out on the Chinese road bike thread ?  Would probably then bring a few new members over here.

I do a fair amount of road biking, but I am by no means an expert.  Especially not with Chinese frames.  I will be ordering a set of Chinese wheels for my road bike here soon (~1 month).

Well, it just depends on the forum.. MTBR, for example, is pretty lenient about promoting your own website/forum in your profile's signature section. RoadBikeReview.com? Well.. I dunno.. but I'm about to find out bc I just joined over there  ;D

Well.. Hopefully we'll have some information on Chinertown by then that will help you choose the right wheels.

Well I'm definitely a roadie; lycra, shaved legs, spreadsheets for my watts/kg, the lot. I also am currently lacking the in chiner road department though.

The next TT, Track and eventually disc roadie will all be Chinese, as soon as I can justify the spending.
