Idiots of eBay

[dbnm]

I am looking for an Enve stem and emailed a seller about the condition of this one because the price was so low. He said "new but it obviously a knock-off". The description does not say anything about it being fake.

What would you do?

[dbnm]

Nevermind - he changed the description.

[nmrt]

he does say that he is "not 100% on authenticity."

I also doubt that it is carbon fiber. i could be wrong but it looks like an alloy stem.

If you want. you could forward his message to ebay as part of a "fraudulent listing" complaint.

I've tried em all, deda and easton match the right sized tubes with a more than 6 degree angle.

for me, they look better on the OS 44 headtubes, the deda always looked too thin. on a thin steel frame, 100% the deda, pro PLT, and easton look better.

yup, some fat tubed shapey carbon things look fine with fat enves. biggest turnoff with them is a big spacer of narrowness with that fat enve sitting on top.
