Has anybody had any experience with this? Is it knock offs or just ridiculously cheap?

Much love

The word 'China' (where copyright laws are very relaxed) would suggest they are copies (and likely to be poor ones at at)

The usual way to tell if a shop is run by thieves is the price of Ultracinese. These people are indeed criminals.

I personally wouldn't trust anything from a Chinese website. Although saying that, Dave's got a site in China that he buys cycling kit from and is happy with what's he's had. Generally the old rule, 'if it seem too good to be true...' applys to these places.
