Ordered fake POCs on the 5th of May - no update to tracking other than 'seller shipped your order'.

Well they just arrived. Pretty happy - quality seems good and there's 4 lenses + hard and soft cases.

I wonder if rapha sunglass clones will start appearing on ali express #crossingfingers

They've been around for a while: https://www.amazon.co.uk/BRET-HITMAN-HART-OFFICIAL-AROUND/dp/B00DPHPS4S

Recommendations for a carbon fork seller ? Want to replace the snapped fork on my Cinelli Vigorelli. Would like the option to specify a colour if at all possible.

Colour will be way off most likely. Might be best just to look for high amount of reviews and paint it yourself

Rockbros bell came today. Attached it to the steerer to see what it looks like and the hex nut stripped itself so it looks like it's staying there. Sounds nice at least.

that's a security feature...

Have you had a chance to try this yet?

I have not, been off the bike for a bit due to an op on my shoulder

Ah, healTFU / no worries

Does anyone have a rock bros bell/similar that they want to well?

Snide POCs ordered from ebay. Will update when here

Anyone tried the Aliexpress titanium frames? Can be had for about £500 with internal routing...

Plus customs and tax probs..

Ordered some fake Frogskins to go with my Jawbreakers.

I might. Ordered a silver, tried to change it to a black before it was despatched but I don't think the message was received in time. Will be picking it up tomorrow, if you want a silver one you can have it.

Further to this, if @cheetah doesn't need the 26mm bar mount, or if anyone has a spare, I'd love one. Lost one of mine in a tumble yesterday

Oh dear, hope you are ok. To be honest, I didn't even think about mounts. Do they come with multiple mounts? I just perhaps naively assumed it would be for 31.7 size bars

Yeah, fine, thanks. Stupid slide out on a flat MTB trail.

Yeah they come with two steel strips which you feed into the bell, one long enough for ~26mm and one for ~32mm

I see. Well if cheetah doesn't want it, I'll probably just keep the silver one and you can have the shorter mount.

For $850 you can have fully custom made titanium frame from waltly. These guys make frames for at least one UK based "builder".

Yes please, are you in London? And can they be remounted easily or just one?

Yep in London, and no idea I'm afraid. Will be picking up the parcel tomorrow, I'll message you after that. If you don't need the 26mm bar mount, do you mind if I take that out and pass it onto to Branwen?

@Hovis Yeah that's fine, not sure what bike I'll put it on but I'll just make up the diameter will innertube if need be
