    Hi guys any ordered one of these or anything else

    http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=271202429311&index=1&nav=WATCHING&nid=65044763263

    From the above eBay seller.

    Are the headset standard as in will I be able to get one from this country?

    That looks identical to my plastic 29er, which I rode during MTB Himalaya last year and has seen quite a bit of other action too.

    Really like it – light, chuckable, responsive, comfortable, although having said that it’s my first 29er, so some of that might be down to the wheel size.

    I paid £269 for mine including a headset, which has lasted fine.

    Cheers, Rich

    No sign of it, just some lousy £240 one instead. Not even worth looking at. 🙂

    I bought mine in April last year, so the ebay details aren’t available any more, and I can’t remember the exact weight I’m afraid, but it was certainly respectable.

    I didn’t want to go BB30 so went with a BSA BB, but other options were available.

    I don’t think that it’s a direct copy of anything specific, although I may be wrong, a lot of these bikes take inspiration from lots of brands, but all I can say is I like it and it was a bargain!

    My UK riding buddy is a very good DHer, and normall whips me on the twisty stuff and descents, while I kill him on the ups. First ride on this bike and I schooled him everywhere 😀

    Cheers, Rich
