i think i read here recently that they're shut down or something? There was a crack down and some people visited prison again, from what i recall.
You're looking to buy from criminals.

Yeah, also wasn't sure about ordering a counterfeit frame, that is why I wanted to get without any pinarello logo on it. I'll try to find a shop then, that is willing to sell just the original frameset.
Thanks for the info!

Heyo,

has anyone ordered nowadays a pinarello frame from Yoho? I can't find their aliexpress website, and just want to be sure that they are still existing or not. (The website is still up.)

Also has anyone ordered frames without logo? Is it possible to ask them to not put on any pinarello logo?

Thanks!

I wouldn't count on it.
Ordered and paid 3rd of June, shipped on the 10th, received 30th of June. (Shipping to Germany, )

Yeah that would be too close I think. Danke für die Antwort :)

Hey everyone,
has anyone ordered nowadays wheelsets delivered to the EU? How long did it take until the delivery? I'm thinking of getting CS-RDW-H-50-30 with XDR freehub (with grey decals if that matters) for an event in the end of july.

Thank you!

+1 for the ICAN Graro. Stiff & fast.



Sorry to be off-topic, but which chainring are you running and which size? I'm thinking of changing the stock Sram 42T for the summer season.

I bought a complete Sram Rival AXS groupset but I don't know of comes with rotor adapters. Did you Sram Force come with original adapters?

I bought a Sram Rival E1 set a few months back and they came with the adapters.

Thank you everyone for the answers!

I think I'll try the Tagoola wheelset then, and maybe I'll order one for myself also later on.  ;D

Hey everyone,

I'm planning to order a new wheelset for the wife but still not sure which one would be the best. It should be a budget option, and she really likes the sound of the ratchet hubs. So the two options I have:
  • Elitewheels SLR Disc (around €550 with shipping+taxes)
  • Aeroraptor 50 Wave (around €428 with shipping+taxes)

I only have experience with the Elitewheels SLR Gravel and I'm really happy with it, but the price difference of 28% makes the aeroraptor a nice option (a little bit too nice of a price?).

What would be your recommendation if you would have to choose between them, or does anyone has long term experience with this Tagoola wheelset?

Thank you!

It's arrived! Took a bit of a punt on the paint; Is it blue? Is it green? It's so preeetty!  Looks really tidy, paint is excellent, contact points have been nicely faced and everything was really packed. Looking forward to getting it built!

Can I ask please, which chameleon color is that? :O Looks awesome!

That's a very nice build. One comment: it looks like you live in such a nice area and you chose a bridge over the highway for the pictures. The bike deserves better  8). Just kidding, let us know how it rides after you've done some mileage. Enjoy!

Totally agree! It was on the way down from the hill that I remembered to take a picture. I enjoyed the ride too much.  ;D

Hey everyone,

I also finished my bike. Got the frame back in july, but had some other things before I could start the building. Also this is a bike that is a first for me in a lot of aspects, first carbon frame, carbon wheels, electrical shifting, 1x, and the first that I've built by myself.

Groupset: SRAM Rival E1 XPLR
Wheels: Elitewheels SLR Gravel 45mm depth
Tyres: Continental Terra Speed 40mm (for now, I had it as a spare. Planning to get a 45mm Pathfinder.)
Casette: SRAM Rival 10-46
Chainring: SRAM Rival E1 42T
Handlebars: Ican Blade-G

The biggest issue I encountered were the UDH hole in the frame was a bit undersized, I had the remove some paint there so the bushing could fit. Otherwise everything fits together nicely and it rides awesome. Had some anxiety on the first ride, eventhough I double checked every screw with 2, newly calibrated torque wrenches.
If anyone thinking about this frame I can easily recommend it! Also the full ordering process was smooth, Peggy answered all my questions quickly and I've received a status update about the frame with pictures during the whole process

Would be a perfect project parellel to the gravel bike build.

Hi everyone,

Apologies for yet another question, but I’m trying to finalize my groupset choice, especially with my frame expected to arrive in about two weeks.

I’ve never used SRAM before, and I’m considering going with the Force E1 groupset paired with a 48/35 chainring. From what I understand, this is a road-oriented setup, are there any potential compatibility issues I should be aware of? Chainline, crank width, etc?

My other option is the Force XPLR E1, but I’d really prefer to stick with a 2x setup if possible.

Thanks in advance for your help!

hi,

cannot help you on the groupset question, but regarding the BB: I'm using this Miche one (https://www.bike24.de/p1896011.html), which is okay price wise and spins extremely well. So I'm very happy with it and doesn't cost a kidney.

Hey,

Thanks for the recommendation! This is actually the same one I came across, but I couldn’t find much information on it. If you’ve had a good experience with it, I’m happy to go with this one too.

Hey,

I've just ordered this frame last week and still undecided on the parts I want to build on. I have a Shimano GRX825 list and a SRAM Force/Rival E1 list. Price wise and logically (lot of hills and also fast flat gravels/roads around here) the Shimano would be the right choice for me, but I would also like to try out the SRAM groupset (never used one before). Also still not sure if 2x12 or 1x13 but that is just a different question.
The only issue I encountered with the Shimano build is the bottom bracket. This would be my first bike build and I know that the size would the T47i-24 85,5mm. Maybe I'm just blind but I can't find any option for this BB that doesn't cost hundreds of euros.
Does anyone has a recommendation, or experience with Shimano compatible BBs for this frame?

Thanks!
