Vendor Discussion & Reviews / Re: Shipping time from flyxii?
« on: March 04, 2015, 07:46:43 PM »
yeah it arrived and looks excellent. They sent it out amazingly fast after I placed the order but got held up in customs in China. In no way was this the fault of Flyxii and I am very happy with how fast the response was on their side when I had concerns. I will write up full review soon for anyone interested

flyxii turning out to be very good with response although I think a language barrier may make it difficult at times, hard to know. I have been offered a refund if frame doesn't arrive after Chinese new year 27th feb and I will not hesitate to order from them again as I believe it is out of there hands when it comes to shipping

Yeah I have been checking with usps it says "We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece."
They got the package out like the day after I ordered it I think on the 19th of Dec so looks like it may just be waiting for a spot on a plane at this point.
Don't want to bother them asking what their turnover time is but so far they have been very helpful over email and answered every question very promptly.
Thanks for the inside and keep an eye out for a build :)

I placed an order for a couple frames in Dec. 1 was sent out immediately but they had to build the other one as they did not have it stock. Anyway says it export customs scan 12/26 but no word after that. I know its a waiting game but would have expected to arrive by now. Anyone else have experience? I hope my other frame doesn't take this long as I already had to wait an extra 25days for build. Portland, OR

29er / FR-202 Build
« on: December 16, 2014, 05:45:24 PM »
Just threw something together real quick for fun. Had a ton of parts lying around including an XX group from a XX1 swap, so picked up a frame from flyxii and going to sell it.
Flyxii FR-202 Frame Size 19" 3k Matte
SRAM XX Group
XO brakes
Rock Shock Reba RL fork 100mm
Bontrager Duster tubeless wheels
Niner alloy bars and seatpost
Race Face stem
Selle Italia SLR saddle

Pictured without front D because all I had was a direct mount. (maybe buyer will want 1X??)
Rear brake line not run internal because I did not feel like messing with it already set up

I like the frame and will buy a FR-217 and 602 for myself if this sells :)

29er / 142 in 135 frame
« on: December 07, 2014, 07:55:03 PM »
Hey I am building up a fr-202 flyxii hardtail. I did not quite go into full research mode before making the purchase but not a huge deal as I got an awesome deal on a frame from craigslist. I have 3 extra sets off wheels but they are ALL 142 spacing! I bought a cheaper set of Bontrager wheels that do not offer 135mm hub caps and was wondering if anyone has grind down the caps 3.5mm on each side? Seems like it is an easy solution. I have a thru to QR release adapter.
