My GF dropped an aluminum leaf rake across my top tube. :'(

Had mine for 6 months now and several hundred miles, zero issues.  Just added some decals this week, to make it look like my first bike, a Dyno Detour, from when I was 10.  I'll post photos once the site allows it again.

My build got spun off to this link by the mods: http://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,685.msg7546.html#msg7546

062 17" frame painted gloss white , PF30, 12x142 rear axle
beer ebb PF30 to GXP
Light bicycle all mountain carbon rims
Hope pro 2 evo hubs
XTR race M985 brakes
160mm ice tech rotors
Ti rotor bolts
XX1 GXP carbon cranks
Absolute black oval 32t chainring
rocket ron 2.1 and 2.25 tubeless
RockShox XX RCT3 fork w/ 15mm thru axle
Spyder twin tail seat
XX1 derailleur, trigger shift, and cassette
ESI Chunky grips
UNO 60mm stem
xpedo spry pedals

How is the EBB holding up in the Carbon PF30 Shell? Any Creaks? How long have you been running it with the EBB for?

Well I'm not sure i'll ever get my frame back.

After returning it to them, at my expense, and several days where they said it was missing. They now say that they can't remove the BB adaptors either! And so if I want the frame replaced, I'll have to pay return shipping!

I've been dealing with Yoyo Yang who has been very arrogant and unhelpful though this process, and has never admitted that they made a mistake by sending me a frame that wasn't the PF30 that I ordered.

It's getting to the point now that I think i'll have to get Paypal to initiate a refund. After telling him that I was not going to pay the return shipping cost, he has not returned my email.

Its a shame because I think its probably the best chinese frame out there.

Well that sucks man! You're right, this frame is shaping to be one of the to top 3 chiner frames. Is workswell the only place to get it?

You should show them this thread.. point out how many views it has (almost 15 thousand).. show them how much positive exposure they and their products are getting.. but that could easily turn into negative exposure..

That does suck. Sorry to hear that. I first read about your ordeal just before ordering my Plus frame from them. I already have the 062. When the ordering process hit a little bump, I was a little nervous about what they would do. They took care of it politely, then when the second bump in the road hit, they took care of that with out issue too. I think Paypal will be your best bet. Hopefully you can get it all resolved. Good luck.

That really blows. I hope everything works out in your favor and you end up with the frame you want.  :-\

 I think so. I've found the same frame being sold by Sobato bikes. But I think its the same factory. On AliExpress the contact is ....Yoyo Yang!!

Who has everyone else dealt with? I think the main issue is the sales guy not admitting that its his mistake. I sent an email to their info email last night, but haven't received a reply.

Ailun is who I dealt with on the most recent purchase of the plus frame on Amazon.
Sarah Liu for the handlebars from the eBay seller Sobatostore
Sarah Liu for the 062 from eBay seller Sobatostore

When I first started looking at the 062 frame, I contacted them through the Workswell website. They informed to make the purchase through eBay as it's the easiest way. So I do believe that they are all the same, just different selling options. They really don't share the same products with anyone else like most other vendors do.

I got mine through eBay before the name change to Sobatostore. I have no idea who I dealt with. They did respond reasonably fast though.

HScarbonframe or something like that. That's where my 062 frame came from.

Cheers

I started a dispute with paypal. I expect that I won't see and cash for at least a month. I'd actually still be happy if they sent me the correct frame, I'm just not going to pay for shipping a 3rd time.

Bummer man. What are you going to go with now?

Did you tell them that you are opening a dispute with Paypal?

About 400 miles. No problems, no creaks. It's great so far.

Thanks Viper. Did you use Fibre grip on it? I know plenty of EBBs creak - even in aluminium shells.
