Anyone familiar with 3T Funda Forks?
Trying to figure out if this eBay sale is legit--they are advertising a 3T Funda in matte finish:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3T-Funda-Tea...8AAOSwmtJXZX28 3T website shows the matte finish with glossy lettering: https://www.3tcycling.com/road/en/bi...-team-stealth/ So am I looking at Chengmai forgeries, or a real product with an old graphic? |

A partial answer--the old graphic was versions of stripes. But the fact that the same seller is selling other 'bargain' brand forks makes me suspicious:

The "3T Funda Team Matt Black Carbon Fork FLASH SALE!" looks exactly like a painted-with-different graphics "Leader Fork i 806 TR Carbon Matt Black Fork", etc. |

That is definitely a fake. The actual ones have thinner stripes and the lettering is muuuuuch smaller. The shape on knock-offs is slightly different, with the "kinks" being less pronounced.
Side note: they're great forks if you like stiff and aero. I currently own a real Funda Pro but have also owned a knock-off. The knock-off had an ugly slightly mis-sharpen crown and the steerer wasn't quite as stiff. Weight was almost indentical. |

down in the basement...
If you specifically want a Funda fork I've got a NOS one with the plug and all. It was a warranty replacement from Cervelo that I never ended up using.
I can take pics and look for the specs if anybody is interested. I've just been too lazy to put it in the classifieds. It's 1 1/8 but I'll have to check for all of the other details. |
