Has anyone bought these? "HARUONE" Forks

Hi all.

I can find no information about these forks anywhere and wondered if anyone here had used them, they appear to make some high end forks ( carbon fibre ) but don't seem to have an internet presence, just Amazon.

Any advice would be appreciated

Cheers

Arch

I wouldn't buy anything like that.

There are no companies trading under that name, and the WIPO global brand database has no trade marks listed under that name.

There are no reviews for their products.

This is an amazon seller's fake/pseudo brand. http://seattletrademarklawyer.com/blog/ ... brand.html https://tamebay.com/2020/02/fake-brands ... ducts.html https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=haruone

An unfortunate consequence of this selling strategy is that it makes it considerably more complicated for the buyer to determine who the original manufacturer was and if the product is likely to be any good.

Sometimes using google image search you can track your way back up the chain or find other reviews of the same product from other sellers.

In a very quick search I found a weight training bench, a novelty lamp amd an alleged inflatable boat offered under the Haruone brand. The only fork I could see was a mountain bike suspension fork; the description is so garbled that it suggests that the vendor has no knowledge of the goods on offer. Given the range of "stock" I suspect that it's a Trotter style operation.

I would have zero confidence in such a business.

Good Morning

Thank you all for your very fast replies to my question.

I myself found similar information when I made numerous searches but I wasn't sure quite what to make of the lack of information.
Thank you for putting this information into context for me.

I shall steer well clear, I guess its true what they say............ " If it seems to good to be true, it usually is"

Cheers

Though maybe not if you were to use those forks ;-)
