Where do one buy quality FS 27.5" frame?
« on: July 29, 2017, 03:25:52 PM »
Hi, my first post here.

I have today a good HT that I like a lot.
But I consider to swap the frame for a either CF-HT or even better, a CF-FS.
My concern is how to know what quality one get buying a no name frame.

Where should I start?

Thanks!

You start here. There's a good number of Chinese vendors who have good to great reputations here. Personally, I'd recommend checking out Peter's (Carbon Speed) site. Find a couple of models that you fancy, come back here and check if the chosen model/s had already been discussed and join in. Otherwise, create a thread for the chosen model and hopefully, someone got something to share about it.

This one looks like something I could use. But I don't see prices
