Hi Folks,

Bought my first Roadie couple of months back, a Boardman Comp 2010.

Im looking to by a carbon seatpost & possibley bars. Im hearing theres a lot of Chinese carbon around at the moment, at a fraction of the price of branded carbon.

Can anyone recommend an eBay seller or website with a good reputation?

Regards.

    CRC have a lot of carbon seat posts and bars on massive sale at the moment. Might be worth having a look there. I am, however, also interested in getting some carbon forks and looked at some of the chinese ones on eBay. Almost seem too good to be true!

    I got some bars and seatpost from Carbon_Bicycle on Ebay. Had them for a few months now, no complaints other than they wouldn't combine shipping despite them both arriving in the same box..

    Pointless buying CF bars. Even the pros don't bother all of the time. Weight saving minimal - if at all. Just fragile and pricey.
