Hi,

I seem to remember a few weeks ago in the comic ,an ad for a UK company that was selling Pedalforce frames in the UK. Did I imagine this or does anyone have a link?


thanks

    no idea sorry but i just bought one as part of a groupbuy and its amazing for the price, the finish is just as good as frames costing 4x the price

    I have seen PF advertising themselves over here, but I can't remember a UK firm middle manning for them. I bought mine and had it shipped to a mate in Vegas who brought it back for me last month.

    Currently they have a MTB group buy on, but I would reckon that they might do another road group buy around September time. If the dollar is still weak then they will still be a great buy (even better if you live in Europe and pay in Euros)

    thanks.

    I might just buy one and have it shipped.
    I neeed a frame quite soon.
    I seem to remember this company quoting a £500 price tag, which is about £100 more than in the US.
    Of course I could just be delusional.

    Don't forget to factor in that it won't slip past Customs and Parcelforce without requiring extra money ~ £50-£70

    I bought a Pedalforce RS2 in the recent Group Buy (a red one).
    I think the shipping and insurance worked out at about £30. Then I paid £39 (duty + Parcelforce fee) when I picked it up from the Parcelforce depot.

    It was shipped direct from the far east and arrived within a week of receiving the email to say it had been dispatched. The box was a bit crushed when it arrived but the frame was well packaged inside.

    They are good quality frames / forks for the price. I used mine on the Fred Whitton and managed to complete it in less than 7 hours, so they are certainly up to the job.
