Has anybody on here got a frame they bought from APEXTORM ?
Looking for feedback on it if so before pulling the trigger 🤣

Their Alistore has like next to no details and only a single photo for each frame. Seems suspect to me. Why not look into one of the many well reviewed companies/factories on this forum? VeloBuild/Carbonda/TanTan/LightCarbon/XMCarbonSpeed/etc.

Thanks for the reply. Seems a bit of a minefield. Some good reviews some bad for tantan for example

Ain't this a mirror of FirstClass carbon store (the store that produced relatively good Ostro Vam counterfeit, cf ostro vam thread) ?

No it is not.
Mirors of FC are RK extreme and Polar.

Hello, just came across this thread.
I did my intensive research in early 2025 after the OSTRO VAM thread and some lead i found on the internet (reddit/youtube) for some SL8 frames.
My status after communicating with different sellers, comparing weights and carbon lay-up was:
Nicole Bike Store: Tyre compliance off - No-Go
Eisen Peter: Weight good but carbon lay-up and feedback on questions not convincing
First Class Carbon (Mirror RK & Polar): User issues and feedback on questions not convincing
Apextorm: Good communication, frame compliance OK, Weight only very sligthly off original, very neat carbon lay-up, even came with full serial number that was working at the dealer, is on the higher price side but supposedly quality is top (official dealer put the bike together and just worked before my bike on a full service on a original SL8 and did say everything went smooth without problem).
As I am currently searching for a Gravel Frame I re-joined all threads but currently I did not find any new accessible sellers that offer better quality but I have not finalized my reasearch yet.

Any recent reviews or experiences with apextorm?
