Buyers Beware of RXL SL Bicycle Component Parts FRAUD from Asia…Opinion
I purchased a full carbon road bike handlebar from China.
The bar was defective with a hole in the internal cable routing line. I sent the Vendor a picture and description. The bar was never used. They will not replace, refund, nor honor their warranty for their defective bar, though I agreed to pay further shipping charges. They will not answer to my emails.

The following companies and addresses are all related.
- Shenzhen Junling Trading Co., Ltd
-RXL SL Co., Ltd
www. rxlsl.com
-JL–BicycleParts Co., Ltd
www.utradeshop.com
-Bicycletoparts Co., Ltd
They sell their products directly; and on Aliexpress, eBay, and DHgate websites.
My opinion … Avoid these related RXL SL companies and websites for bicycle components.

I'm sorry that the OP has had this experience. There are certainly challenges to trying to hold a Chinese company to any kind of standard of quality and after-sales service. Personally, it'll always be worth buying from someone I can eyeball about any problems, for that reason.

😕

What's that old saying?

"If its too good to be true, it probably is!"

The last carbon fibre road bar I purchased (S-Works) cost £160 from a retailer, I have no doubts about its integrity, and at least have someone to bring a legal action against if it did fail and cause serious injury

Who would have thought someone selling fake parts would be dodgy?
