No brakes and no obvious means of fitting any either. Looks like a winner.

Could be a good market for importing these and welding on disc brake tabs.. Would need new wheels though, or at least rebuilding with new hubs.

But then again, putting things that will get wrecked by sand and mud etc destroys the point of the cheap bike that will go anywhere. Any UK sellers? I'd be up for one.

I'd have one at ยฃ200 let alone $200

If you gave me ยฃ200 i'd take one and give it away to the first person I saw. Looks like my idea of bicycle hell !!!
