Component Deals & Selection / Groupset Stock (or lack of!)
« on: February 06, 2021, 04:50:32 PM »
Has anyone else found/finding that stock of complete groupsets seems to be non-existent at the moment? I'm in the UK so not sure if it's something specific here (brexit/covid)?

I've been looking since around mid-December at my overall build and stock situation doesn't seem to have changed. Mainly been looking at 105/Ultegra/Force ballpark and want a disc set. Found today somewhere (can't even remember now - maybe Merlins) with Campag Chorus sets in stock which could be an option even though it's a little more than I was looking to spend!

Hoping my Velobuild frame will be with me in the next month or so and would love to have everything lined to ready to build straight away.

Vendor Discussion & Reviews / Any Experience with YaoFlying?
« on: January 09, 2021, 02:54:11 PM »
Hi All,

First post on here having been reading for a few weeks after deciding that I want to go down the carbon frame route for my next build :)

Amongst the myriad sellers mentioned on different posts here and elsewhere I came across YaoFlying on ebay and AliExpress. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge on them? Links below to their Ali store and the frame I'm looking at.

They have mostly positive reviews so I'm close to pulling the trigger but thought I'd ask here first!

Have exchanged a couple of messages with them on AliE and they've always responded quickly with good/appropriate answers. Althought they did say estimated shipping is currently 20-40 days which seems a little optimistic to me given what I read elsewhere?

Anyway, thanks for any help/advice/chat! Looking forward to getting involved in the community here.
Mike
