Title: TREK MADONE FRAME
Post by: canadabike93 on July 22, 2021, 10:30:14 AM
I know how this forum feels about 1:1 copies, but has anyone ordered the new Madone frame that is going around Ali? I've never seen Trek replicated before, wondering why now? Also, did Trek move their manufacturing or something? Some people say that these bikes could be made in the same factories as the real ones. Just a thought.

Theres no reason why companies would use the same mold and sell it. That is a massive infringement in their contracts. Many frame builders also arent selling directly to consumers, they are professionally done.
A frame may very well come from the same factory but that doesnt mean same quality.

You will not find an exact replica of brand name frames because they are closed molds and would be a massive infringement.
