Any chance you can post a link to the frame and forks?
How long was the wait posted? postage? customs?
I have just bought a very similar (although different) frame from China. I bought it via Aliexpress, search for AC059. Surprised at how quickly it got here, (it was in stock when I ordered, but for some reason took a week for them to post it) It was finally posted on 31/10 and arrived on my doorstep yesterday 3/11. Frame, fork and headset was £320 delivered. No bill from customs yet… When I have bought rims from China before I have always had to pay before the goods where released, hopefully I won’t have to pay for this one.
A bit of a gamble buying from China, but communications where good, and I am more than happy with the quality of the frame and forks. I am still waiting for several boxes of bits to arrive before I can build it up and actually test it out. Obviously future warranty support is debatable, but thought I would take a chance.
