I don’t need advice about AliExpress or Ebay. It’s understood there is a risk and its hit and miss. Most brand name items are counterfeit, but some overseas products are reasonable. Sharing our experiences good and bad is a way to abate the risk and find the good amongst the garbage. I’d rather buy a product that is transparent about what it is, than counterfeit.
Same for leaf spring seat posts. None in stock and hard to find trustworthy seller of Ergon.
