Further datapoints on why not to buy fakes on Aliexpress

[Davidhe23]

Beware of yohobike or rocking cycling store of Aliexpress, before the sale they are very nice and attentive sellers, but then it becomes hell.

It is impossible to contact them, communication between seller and buyer disappears, and they can only lie.

In my case, to sell me a frame they started saying that in three days it would be painted, a week I decided to pay an extra and keep a frame in stock that they send in 48 hours, And two weeks later, I'm still waiting for an answer.

Now that is a name that inspires confidence in a sworks fake. I want to bomb down hairpins at 80kmh on a 800g fake from a store called Nicole on Aliexpress.
You bought real thru axles, so i think it's ok now, you're safe. I'd feel safe.

All built up, thoughts ?

As cringe as you'd expect, with shitty tyres on Elite branded wheels with a 50/34 105 crankset on an sworks.
It's like a toothless golfer wearing crocs and drinking supermarket beer on the course with a john deere tee shirt and a dirty old gas station cap.
