Example 4
Giant refused to honor my warranty for a cracked steer tube. In my initial email to them I specified that I'm aware of any financial implications incurred on my side. I just wanted my fork replaced. They told me kick rocks. So I made a video highlighting my dilemma. Didn't even bash Giant as a brand. Literally 2 days later they sent another email magically stating they'll cover everything at no cost to me. While I was a full price paying customer, are we to assume they would have done the same had I not had a social media presence? Who knows...

Mmm... In China, Giant simply refused to warranty all of the cracked steer tubes, blaming it all on the "wrongful installation" by the users.

Hi guys, I'm writing from Mainland China as a newbie to the cycling community, also considering to buy this frameset, looking for some feedback from current users (since there are not so many users in China).

This frameset along with the HBR-013 handlebar is priced at 3999RMB (552.16USD) in China, and is known to the Chinese cyclist community just recently because of its popularity in Europe & America.
For a stringent budget, this is a very compelling choice compared to the 9990RMB(1379.62USD) Specialized Allez Sprint Frame, or any other Big-Chinese-Brand Carbon Frames placed at the 10000 RMB price range.

I'm 100kg in weight, and 187cm tall, and I'm looking at the 58cm size. I'm planning to do a lot of sprint training on my new bike, and I'm wondering whether I'm risking my collarbone and teeth trying to save 500 dollars.

Thank you!
