Yohobike has been shutdown. Last time all their sellers (Lily and Tom) were online, it was a week ago. Apparently, after TaiwenEisen got caught almost a year ago, Yohobike encountered the same faith.
Tom just sent me the photos of the bike and he used exactly the same photos that he sent to you. I'm waiting for more photos from him before I pay the full amount.
Not sure what's happening here. +86 136 7012 0157
Proper looking bike! In the end I ordered from Yoho, but opted for a SL8 instead. 1 more week before they ship it out. Hopefully the quality is going to be good.
The only thing is I’m riding 28mm tyres on the 55s but I’m definitely going to move to a 30/30mm and 30/32mm set up once the tyres need replacing same with the 65s as I already have a set for the build
@Sander2177 i like your 55/55 build. I have been pondering building up something very similar but most likely a 55/60 for my SL8. I have been running mid-depth 45's that i'm mulling moving to my gravel bike. still undecided if i want to do a 3.1mm carbon spoke build or a light weight steel spoke build - i do like the serviceability of steel spokes plus the slight comfort improvement. trade offs are weight and stiffness of course.
i'd do a 60/65 but the crosswinds can get silly in the coastal areas near me.
Received my frameset yesterday.
Started today with my custom “wink” decals, will coat the bike for a satin shine and protection.
Hopefully i’ll have it assembled by the end of next week.

Btw: anyone used the Chaser hanger? Seems like the size of it is completely different to the hanger that comes with the frame?
for me sl8 (yoho) was very soft , very flex, only on front was stiff. handlebar and fork. seatpost/bb and back felt like i had suspensions. and i am not a racer . i bought original seatpost which made some work. vam now is very stiff and madone gen8 too.
Received the wheels 1298gr. Easy installation, true out of the box. I'll test ride these tomorrow.
Edit: Received a second set same findings as above -> 1303gr.
Maybe i am looking at a fake Jack Shi 007 or simply looking in the wrong place.
But instagram nor facebook nor the 2 sites listed in his bio show any scopes right?
https://jackshibike.com/ is a sloppy unfinished site.
and the other URL is unavailable to connect.
Is there a shift in the sellers communication since there were large busts? I remember sending "hi" on whatsapp to a number i found in an ali listing and i would get 100+ pictures of the real fakes, not the real bikes, togheter with pricing.
Also, not to put you on the spot @Tpower59, but do you have any expierence with either seller?
