Hello all, I've won this triathlon frame on Ebay for £150 but have yet to pay. Apparently Vision have never made frames and deal only in components (according to their customer service). Is this some sort of fake? I bought as I felt that I could sell the headset, make back some of the money spent and then just use the frame and forks for a Triathlon build but now I'm worried that the CK headset may be a fugazy as well. It should be noted though that the seller has good reviews on other bikes sold within the past 6 months at a similar price. Any help and insight is appreciated. Stay blessed

  • My guess is that it's a far east manufactured frame sold under several short lived 'brands' online. Not related to visiontechusa.com but not a intentional fake.

  • They do seem to be Italian colours in the logo, maybe a lead

    I think if you are looking for evidence that this is a counterfeit so you can get out of paying after winning the auction you are going to be disappointed - unless the seller explicitly made a claim that this was made by the Vision components company.

    @Swifty I thought of that, sadly googling "vision italy/italian" found nothing of pertinence.Thanks

    @Will I don’t think it’s an imitation of anything, someone just randomly chose ‘Vision’ to slap on the side
