Chinertown Classifieds - Rules & Guidelines

Welcome to the Chinertown Classifieds. This section is for members to buy & sell bike-related gear and components.

.
General Rules

1. Vendors are welcome  
If you're a vendor or brand rep, you're free to promote your frames or components in the "Sales & Classifieds" and "Vendor Discussion & Reviews" sections. Those two areas of the forum are fair game... promote your brand as you wish. If you post outside of those two sections of the forum, your post must add real value, not just act as a sales pitch. Share geometry details, materials & manufacturing insights, or build examples, etc.

2. Bike-related items only 
No off-topic listings. Frames, wheels, forks, drivetrains, accessories.. all good.

3. No trademark or copyright infringement 
Do not list items that feature unauthorized use of logos or branding from other companies. This includes any counterfeit, replica, or rebranded items that could mislead buyers or violate intellectual property laws. These posts will be removed and may result in account moderation.

4. Include full details 
Be clear about price, condition, location, and shipping. Photos are encouraged.

5. Mark your post when sold 
Once your item is gone, please edit the title or add a “SOLD” reply.


⚠️ Disclaimer

All transactions are at your own risk. Chinertown provides the platform, but we do not verify listings or sellers. 
Always do your due diligence and use trusted payment methods.

Find Us On Instagram Hey all,

Just getting the Chinertown Instagram profile started, and would appreciate follows and shares.

Find us at this link: https://www.instagram.com/chinertownforum/   
Or by searching for user @chinertownforum

Going to use this account as a place to aggregate pics of all of the custom builds on this site. Only have a few posted thus far, but will continue to add them. If you happen to see your build featured and you want your instagram account tagged/credited then just let me know. Also, if for some reason you don't want your pics/build featured at all on the Instagram account, then please just shoot me a message and I'll remove it. That said, I'll message each user here and alert them/ask permission to feature their build on the account.

We'll also use this as a place to announce giveaways and other promotions in the future!

Thanks for reading,
Sitar

Re: 2022 Cervelo S5

Do you think it’s a good idea to get a frame with proprietary parts from a seller that probably infringes patents?

You’re totally right, this frame in particular is quite unique compared to your Velobuild frames. I’m more intrigued than anything else even though I would buy one in a heartbeat.

On the other hand, as a bicycle mechanic and some who used to work at a bike shop, the mark up on high end bikes are a joke and the big companies are taking customers for a ride. If a genuine Cervelo S5 frame was twice the price of the copy I would buy it and so would many others which would pay for the R&D and the engineering fast. Unfortunately the genuine Cervelo is about 5 times the price.

I have enough spares and just need a frame to build a bike up and looking at aero options

If anyone has more info please post!

Re: 2022 Cervelo S5 Jumping in on this thread as a lurker and bike mechanic myself.
To give an example the Tarmac SL7 copies around are painted TFSA JH-33 Frames.
Buying a TFSA frame is considered ok, buying a replica is putting your life at risk.
It's all a bit strange if you ask me  :)

32mm tire clearance is great.

This frame won't clear 32mm tire width.

Re: Replica Factor Ostro VAM
    I'll chip in on my Faketor Ostro too.

    My frame was marketed as the highest tier amongst the faketor ostro made in chinese factories. I build it up myself with the original spacers and ceramicspeed bb so that people in my group ride don't call me out.


    it was easy to build and the carbon layup internally were extremely smooth, not a speck of carbon dust on my frame.
    The headset fit perfectly, the bb threaded and fitted snugly and the flat mounts came faced properly (no brake rubs).
    For a size 54 full white frame, it came in at around 1054g.  （edited 6 Sep 2024: see photos in later posts)

Re: replica vs open mold discussion QC? I don't think so.

If I'm spending north of $15,000 on a bike, I don't want a single defect anywhere at any point on the bike, but it's just not the case. Time and time again, big name brands are producing rubbish and fleecing their customers. I think the argument is more nuanced than fake=bad, real=good.
