Im in the market for some carbon bars and seat post .Ihave had Easton cnt carbon DH bars on my full sus for a couple years and love um.Ive seen the xc ones on ebay at around £45 but am a little worried they might be copies although the sellers say genuine? also after a carbon seatpost but wasnt sure if the easton ones had issues .crc are doing controltech carbon ones for £60 but im not that sure about the brand.
I know there are some deals out there but i just wondered if anyone can recoment a trusted ebay shop who is good for the real thing.

Bought a Easton ec90 off ebay came all boxed up and seemed very genuine! Still going strong after 6 months (touch wood) 🙂

two things spring to mind.

1. If it seems too good to be true...

2. Is it something you really want to be doing? Buying a seatpost made of carbon from a on line ebay seller? just to save a few quid?

If the ebayer is surplusbikebits, then they're genuine. Have bought stuff off them before. All of it is pukka stuff, just surplus to requirements from the manufacturers they bought it off.
