It's been worked out so that Edd will not have to front the money. Everyone will pay Haideli directly.

Here is the link to the frame.

Just a quick note about sizing.  The AM831 runs a size larger than the SC. A medium 831 is the same size as a large SC. Below are the numbers for both frames.

If you're unsure about sizing,  here's the link to the SC page. https://www.santacruzbicycles.com/en-US/bikes/hightower

So who is going to track how many people are buying?
OR do we just click the Alibaba link and order up the frame we want whenever?
I'm new to dealing with china and shipping and what not, so hopefully someone will cue me up when its time to pull the trigger.
 
Thanks

Also put me down for an XL. Canada

Any idea what shipping with duty will add to Europe?

[scourge]

I see Eddie from Haideli is back and commenting in the other threads. Are we now going with someone else? Awkward.

Hey guys i just got an email from Eddy H about being able to pay them directly for the frames and we could get the discounted price.  I told him i wanted three frames and he asked what color and other info.  Has anybody else been in contact with him?

I don't think we're committed to anyone yet. I think we go with whoever offers the best value. I believe that is probably Eddy/ Haideli. Price for the frame is the same, but Haideli include headset, bb, axle and seat post clamp. Painting is also much cheaper, $20 vs $70.

I hope the bottom bracket and headset come installed. I just put in my first headset using a headset press I got off Amazon. It worked but I did it on an aluminum frame. I would not want to exert that much pressure on a carbon frame. I'd be too afraid to crack it.
