Token-USA.com Cheap Carbon Components

I just wanted to pass along a really cool website I found for inexpensive Carbon components. I just purchased some integrated handlebars and new crankset from them and I can't believe the quality for the price. I thought you'd guys like to know. I try and pass along good websites that cater to us cyclists looking for a good deal.

Here is the site: http://www.token-usa.com

Update: I just got my wheelset today that I ordered a day after I received my other carbon components from www.token-usa.com All I can say is this: HOLY AWESOME!!! These wheels are not only pretty to look at, but they feel like my Mavic Ksyrium SL's when I'm flying down the road. I put 33 miles on the set this afternoon and I am totally impressed with the quality and the handling. The hubs eat up our chip and seal back country road vibration like a champ. Absolutely incredible stuff! I highly recommend them for fast training wheels. My bike is really looking hot and I shaved about 1 lb of weight off it already with these upgrades. Not too shabby!!!

The stuff looks pretty nice, and the price is reasonable. Pity they only do road stuff. All my road bikes are done, but I just ordered a mtn frame that I need to build out.

Update #2:

The Integrated Handlebars from www.token-usa.com are INCREDIBLE!!! I just got back from a 76 mile group ride and the road never felt smoother. AWESOME STUFF!!! Has anyone had experience with the Cinelli Rams? Do you like them too? Just curious.

You should write ad copy for them. Maybe they could use your testimonials on their website and you could make a few bucks royalty.

I applied for a Sponsorship from Token-USA.com. I'm crossing my fingers. I really need access to good carbon components. That was the reason I had to buy the parts I did was because I was involved in a nasty crash in a Crit about 3.5 weeks ago. I destroyed my FSA Cranks, cracked my handlebars in half, and my wheels were toast.

Thanks to the good prices on www.token-usa.com I'm back on this bike and I did it within budget. I sure hope I get the Sponsorship.

You could always just be slow like me, and you'd save loads on equopment.

I got a response back from Token-USA.com and they are offering a partial sponsorship. Something is better than nothing. I guess. At this point, I'll take anything.

I just leearned that www.token-usa.com private labels for some of the biggest companies in the cycling industry. That information alone makes me feel like I got even a bigger bargain than I thought I did.

Token-USA doesn't private label, their parts are made in Taiwan by Gigantex, like most carbon. Not saying their stuff isn't good, but if they are telling you that they make carbon parts for other companies, they are feeding you a line. They are one of many new companies that have begun to offer reasonably priced carbon parts, another being www.velocarbon.com which sponsors my team, which is how I know who makes the stuff.

I know velo carbon sponsors teams and individuals, so if you are looking for a sweet deal on parts, you may want to shoot them an e-mail.


This trend is good I feel, anything to stop Stella from selling those bars for $400.

Does Gigantex have a website? Just curious. Thanks.

Hi, I don't know if they do or not, sorry.

I learned that www.Token-USA.com only has a few parts from them. They actually have a manufacturing plant that sources out lots of carbon parts for other companies Private Label. It's so intersting how all this carbon stuff gets made and then passed around from company to company with a different label. I also learned that Fulcrum Wheels are sourced by Campagnolo, but the wheels are made in Taiwan then sent to Italy for fine tuning. I wish I understood it all.
