This Item cannot be shipped to UK, plus its Alipay as well. Has it given you options to ship?
I was talking to a small seller the other day 60/60mm 18K Gloss carbon finish 3.2mm hidden nipple carbon spokes Goldix 180 SL hub shipped to UK £510

I have experience ordering non-cycling products from taobao, via agents, so that is one option I have.
The agents provides multiple different payment options, shipping routes, & quality control. There's also the possibility to declare the value of the item yourself as well, to avoid duties/vat.

The product photo of the wheels you are in discussion with looks strikingly similar to the link I shared, could there be a connection there? Would also love to hear more about this.

The specs are nothing special, why these rather than something more-known?

Just an upgrade on the wheels i have at the moment, and cheaper than the options I'm seeing from the more known brands.

Hey all,

Thinking about taking a punt on a wheelset from Taobao rather than going through Aliexpress or the usual brands, and wanted to hear from anyone who's done it or thought about it, especially your experience with agents/freight forwarders, what shipping and fees/VAT came to, and how you got on if anything went wrong.

Specifically, I've got my eye on a carbon-spoke wheelset: T1100, 28/21 width, RT240s hubs with 54T ratchet, 1275g (+/- 3%) for 58mm depth, roughly $340/£260 (not including all the fees & shipping). Link: https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1055629199908

How does the stem interface work is it the same as the cervelo? Can you add and remove spacers if you want/need?

Very similar, yes you can add/remove spacers (which are provided).

Makes me think I should have also gone with this colour frame...

been on the look out for some Golden Week sales but not seen anything except from ICAN. I'm on the fence re: this frame cause of the weight - seriously considering the Camp SR9 though

Black Friday, Cyber Week, 11/11 is not too far away...

Information from Jessie:

The factory will be closed for the Chinese National Holiday from 1st–3rd October, and their freight forwarding partner will be closed from 1st–7th October. So expect some additional delays in getting frames manufactured and shipped out.

Some images from a tiktok user who has received their frame. Asking them if they have more details.

This frame looks interesting but Jessie started to not answer my questions after few hours lol. Looks like this will be off my list

I believe the demand in non-western markets is huge and lead times are long so I would expect delays in communications (not saying this is acceptable but understandable).

Has anyone tried if a 35c tires can fit in this frame even the description says 30c maximum?

I don't believe anyone has the frame in hand yet. (Long lead times)

I contacted them back in March after watching several bilibili teasers. They theoretically arranged the order and gave me a 50 day leadtime. Back then they had to wait for the UCI certificate to arrange orders so that leadtime was somewhat orientative.

Around two weeks after this first convo they sent me proof of their UCI sticker (which is very useful  :-X :-X) and sent me a PI.

Last week of April told me that they had already started the production of my frameset and so on. I contacted them early June asking for the status and told me that for the 20th would be ready, they also added that the frame itself was being painted at that moment.

After receiving no more info about the status for almost a month and a half I contacted them again the second of this month and they told me that "something is delay".

I have not contacted them anymore and neither I have received any messages.

By this I do not mean that Camp is not a reputable brand because those who are familiar with the chinese internal market know that it clearly is. I rather want to showcase that Camp are probably overwhelmed with their internal demand in such a high scale that their international focus is rather low at the moment.

The information regarding prices back in march for the european market where 520+261 dollars for the frameset (frame, fork, seatpost, handlebar, bb, headset and f/r axles) and ddp freight, respectively. Which goes in line with what has been said in this forum.

Thanks for all the info, that is super helpful.

I was told and I quote "Production time 50-55 days ( the orders of this models is full, there's a waiting period)". From this, I'm assuming there is a long backlog, I'm happy to wait a couple months but I'll be interested to know if in a few weeks you still have not heard anything back.

That price, "$515 Frame, $5 Thru-axle", is for the frameset (frame, fork, seatpost, TA) I assume, but with or without handlebar? Because this frame requires a bespoke riser handlebar, it seems...

$515 for the Frameset, which includes: Frame, Fork, Handlebars, Seatpost

The bike itself looks great. Only thing is the name, if they could do one without the logos it would look even better :D Did you order directly via the website or where in direct contact via whatsapp etc. with a sales rep?

I think i'll buy some stickers and make the C look like an O. 'OAMP'
Minimum order quantity to get different logo/ no logo is 30...
Ordered via Alibaba. From what i was told that is their frame division, and its a different process entirely to purchase full bikes. I'm assuming via email/whatsapp.
