Id love to try a carbon fiber frame, this seems like a good price. Anyone know anything about these? Or own one?

I just don't know. I would be leery that is maybe counterfit. For one thing, I don't see any Chinese symbols on it. Other thing is...I have heard that when they ship they pack the frame in rice and it smugs the clearcoat.

I have that same frame . . . I bought mine from Bike Island on the web. It's been great. Couldn't be happier with it. Light, stiff and pretty compliant.

I can attest to this. Sometimes you end up with rice in the frame, fork. Royal PITA.

the Bottecchia frame on bikeisland is in 50,53,55,58 sizes. this one is 54. actually, the top tube looks to be matching the Bottecchia 55cm frame.
