Engineer  June and I gamely tried to negotiate with a local dealer of carbon fiber frameset and all we could get from him are  (best price)
         



Bianchi XR 4   $600





Pinarello carbon frame $555


                                             Kulay ng F10 ni VM





                                          Specialized Venge Vias  $700.00







 Frameset                                      SRP                   Our price                                $


           1.   Bianchi Pinarello           39,000         -    P35,000                          673.00



           2,   Specialized                   45,000                 42,000                          807.00

                The lowest he get for Bianchi is                 33,000                          634.00

                 The China prices are free shipping so the custom duties lang ang babayaran dito which is
                 P2,000 to 3,000/carton.


               Listed price at DHgate and Ali Express
                                                            COGS               Custom       Total              GP
               Bianchi                             $500.00             $60.00       $560.00         113.00     P5,876.00
               Specialized                       $700.00             $60.00         760.00            47.00      2,444.00

                                                Therefore he should be selling specialized at  45,000 to even
                                                     up GP

             The unpainted or painted bikes price hovers at $500.00 (for quality bikes)


              Maliit talaga kita.  If we could acquire from Taiwan bikes to as low as $200.00 then we are in. As of now.  the COGS are prohibitive

Good news:   There are bikes frames that are available for a range from less than $200.00.  I am inquiring if they are through volume discount..
