I bought the frame from the "carbomania Official Store" - this is them directly, they were great to dealwith, shipping was on time.
The internal headset routing isnt fantastic, I feel like I need to make a few tweaks to get it sitting right into the headset. The vibrtation of cables inside the frame was itinially quite loud, i'd recommend using anto vibration foam.
