You can also get tubes for $2 when you buy a tyre.

Postage should be about $10.

this on looks like a good deal (Giant Defy Advanced 1 - 2011 for $1800)

cant find any price close to this from bike stores in Melbourne on bike exchange.

Lygon cycles has advertised exact same bike for $2400

$600 dearer, damn.

was searching the net for 50mm carbon clinchers and have found a pair of zipps from ali express, but when i post the link below it reads like this

Aldi have more specials next saturday (24/11/2012)

Bike repair stand for $39.99
Pannier rack and bag set for $39.99
Helmets $12.99
Some bikes not worth mentioning.

IMO a safe assumption is that any brand name product on AliExpress is counterfeit.

Those Zipp 404's from Ali look very suspicious with their Novatec hubs (Zipp spec their own hubs, only wheelbuilder can get Zipp rims separately as far as I know) and incorrect profile (404's have a 58mm depth)
(yes I know its a fake, just pointing out why)

Thanks for that I had my finger poised on the BUY button.

Thanks for the heads up

But, does that make them not worth the money? Its the old argument, zipp mavic shimano all get there product made somewhere,china tiawan ect.My concern is once i transfer the $$ will i get the product?

BTW Have you guys seen the prices on some of the complete and frame only bikes on Ali? those pinnarello's are cheap.And there are a couple of 1 to 3 year old tt bikes for around $800.00 us. To me it looks like ebay customers as the pics look like they are taken from sellers homes ect. Im a bit confused

Another question in itself, The Zipps seem like fakes, which in some eyes is a bad thing, but it may also suggest you'll get a product, Why bother showing a fake product if you don't intend to sell it? Buy with caution, I'm sure there are plenty of e-bay sellers with good reputations selling for a similar price

That said, you could also get some nice alloy wheels for that price too...

Worked for me! I will now have to sell the 200!

These are not mine, I dont know the seller, I just came across them and thought 'great deal'. If someone is looking for some rollers, and is prepared to travel to Forestville to get them:

The side-boxings are a nice touch.
