To be honest when I was in the boutique in Beijing it was difficult to converse. The sales agents don't speak any English and even with a native speaker it is tricky because bike components have completely different translations in Chinese so unless your translator is a cycling person you struggle to get very far...
But weirdly you have to order from Taobao despite being in the physical shop. Then they ship it to you from the factory which is in Hebei.
There's dealers outside China but most seem to have a decent mark up vs Chinese prices.
But the quality of the frames are great. This is my new build with the R7.2.
Can you share how much you got your hi-light bike for, or how much a G0 is going for? I am in contact with a local distributor but the prices they're quoting are a bit much. I wonder how much I can get it for in China then just ship it over.
