Hi
Looking at possibly purchasing a Yoelleo R12.   When I first started looking at it there was a sale running but then because of other issues didn't. Do they or other Chinese bike companies typically run 11/11, black Friday or other times? Obviously can't predict the future but based on past is it likely that there would be sales expected?

Usually 11/11 has good discounts but at least for US, the biggest variable will be shipping costs and tariffs...

If you are buying off AliX, i think 11.11 is the best time. Though literally now is a good time too.

If you are buying an open mold, i think just before lunar new year seems the biggest discounts; and they usually arent big unless the frame is late in its lifecycle.

Best time to purchase is today. 2nd best time is tomorrow. Life is short.

Step 1: don't buy a Yoelleo.

So... better suggestions? are you recommending against because of quality / cost / just don't like? Thx
