Chinese Frames made by DHGATE.

[Doug.]

I am thinking of buying a frame/forks from the above supplier.
Does any one have experience of dealing with them ?
Last but not least, are their products any good ?
Thank you in anticipation of replies.
Yours.

Doug.

DHGate is not the supplier. They just act as a market place a bit like ebay. I have bought frames from China and they have been fine. I have put tens of thousands of miles on mine and raced on them. I would go direct to a reputable Chinese manufacturer like Dengfu, Hongfu or Yoleo though, unless you are looking for a fake, (which I have never bought) in which case you would be best looking at the individual sellers reviews.

I should probably add, be prepared to pay some import duty and a handling fee. Not a massive amount, but I have had to pay it on two frames and a wheelset.

If the company made brake pads, would you be happy to fit them to your car?

There's your answer.

I'm not making a judgement, I'm just presenting a means by which the OP can make an objective decision and resolve his quandry. The actual quality, or otherwise, of the product is of no interest to me.
